RE: alternative for Bonade inverted

I have been playing the Floating Rails lig since early June. Been very happy with it. Plaays better than any ligature i've used so far; especially with my current mouthpiece.

I wouldn't know what to recommend for a ligature similar to the Bonade.. i've never found a Bonade that worked.

The Charlie Bay gold covered ligature worked well on my Fobes mouthpiece. But it closes up the reed too much on my current Kaspar and was too big for my old Ann Arbor Kaspar.

I used the EDII ligature for a couple years until i found the Spriggs. They have a nice focus to the sound. I don't like Rovner's other ligs. But the EDII has the best of both worlds. Little bit of the darkness, little bit of the brightness, clean articulation, good projection.
