Re: Ligatures - centered pressure

Dear Karl: great minds work alike! I also found that one's thumb is the best ligature. So I developed a ligature that reproduces the effect of the thumb, the thumb's effect consisting in:
-direct vertical pressure on the middle of the heel of the reed that doesn't the least bit bend the reed. (as you said)
-a patch on the heel that reproduces the texture of the thumb: thin skin and, a little bit of fatty tissue underneath
The ligature is ready, looks beautiful, is ultra-light and sturdy and slips on fast.. With a little bit of luck, we'll bring it out within the next year. The Rule of Thumb ligature
