Re: Woodstone Ishimori Metal Ligature

Hi, you are quite busy with all the hardware ;-)

By coincidence I could get my hands on a cheap solid silver Ishimori ligature. It is really, really good and it will probably replace my Silverstein Cryo 4 that has been my main ligature for the past two years. And the Silverstein is not bad at all :-)

I have tried a lot of ligatures and on the moment I have 3 ligatures in my case so I can adapt my sound to different situations:

Silverstein Original Black
Lowest resistance, largest sound, a bit like the Luyben but better imo

Silverstein Cryo4
A bit more resistance, more focus, more overtones, better projection

Ishimori Solid Silver
More resistance, even more focus, even more overtones, excellent projection

BTW, I play on cane reeds
