 Sure looks like the finger splints that trainers use on the sidelines at football games .  (please, no soccer/football diatribes) ![[grin]](http://test.woodwind.org/clarinet/BBoard/smileys/smilie5.gif)

 The guy doesn't even offer a right-handed beveled-edge reed knife. 
 
What an odd site.  I think he actually believes in this stuff.

 The way this works is that you put it into the same case as your reeds and they get scared into playing. When ever i have a reed that dies I break the tip off if front of all of my other reeds. That seemd to keep them in line!

 Is it truly electric [with batteries] or just magnetic-magic doing the "job".  Was it Franklin who said "A fool and his money are soon parted".? Don

 Have you seen the ligatures?

Has anyone actually tried any of their products?

 The ligature looks kind of cool actually. Also the mouthpieces (Nagamatsu Mouthpieces) that they are selling have a decent reputation. mabe I should add some elctons to my reeds after all...

 I'm having my oldest bro, who is about to get his master's in bio, to ask some people at the university about the electrical charger thingy.

 The ligature looks like a finger splint, too. 
Maybe they are ex-sumo trainers?

 The very last item on the page is a Rossi clarinet, artfully displayed on a bed of wooden spoons.  What in the world could be the significance of that????

 looks to me like the ligature is some sort of conductor for the reed torture chamber
