Weren't the heavy screws in the regular Bonade rather than the inverted one?

The Selmer sounds unfocused and heavy to me, and the Bay and the Eddie Daniels have very distinctive sounds. The Eddie Daniels is clearly the darkest of the lot. I was impressed enough by the Bay to want to try one, and I also tend to see the inverse Bonade (I often play the gold plated one from Tapir-Weir, Canada) as a standard, familiar reference point.

The material of a ligature without question influences the sound quality. This can be heard by trying different metal Ishimoris of exactly the same design but different metals or metal plating one after another. Almost everyone sounds darkest on the solid copper and sterling silver models. The gold plated model plays much brighter, and the satin and pink gold are somewhere in between.
