 Re: The Advantage of Playing on String Ligatures

I think that the major advantage of a string ligature is that each time you wrap the string, you are constructing a unique and custom ligature that matches each individual reed exactly. With ligatures of metal, plastic, fabric or leather, they can't perfectly flex and mold precisely to the contour of each reed.

Here is a site that offers all sorts of shoe strings and can actually make custom lengths ...
