Re: Legere European plus... Van Gogh

Another month+ in I am still pleased with the Van Gogh.

Mostly I have it aligned with the bottom line of my HS** mouthpiece, which puts the top of the VG well into the vamp. My lower lip often brushes the ligature. And I find this is the most responsive playing position. Is this backwards or is it not?

In any case, some of you who play or have tested Van Goghs (or other ligatures?) may have never tried such a high position. Try it, maybe you'll like it.

Ligature lines are useful only as an aid to consistent placement day after day.
