 Does anyone know of a website that sells Mitchell Lurie Springboard Ligatures?

 I have 2 M L's, one for sop. Bb [et al], one for bass cl, used regularly.  Their construction is very simple, two horizontal bands tie down the reed securely, with screws in back.  I believe you can achieve the same structure by using a "standard" lig, 2 screws, but with an OPEN back [2 bands] and inverting it, of course the screws will be adjustable from the left hand side then.  Try it to see if you like it, before trying to purchase one. I recall they were inexpensive.  I also like the Bonades, reg. and inverts.  Don 
 
Thanx, Mark, Don

 I come across them now and then with older clarinets, but I set them aside for Sean Osborn since he likes to have them on hand for his students. I gave him two last weekend.  They are great ligatures actually, and the next one I find I'm going to keep.
