Re: deQuelery hard rubber ligature

Interesting. Thanks for the post.

For ligatures that are not completely "secure" I try to grasp with just the thumb and forefinger going around the beak area. It doesn't always work, but it gets me by. Also if your switching A to Bb, you could use the same barrel and avoid the problem altogether.

It would be great if you could post an image of the ligature you have. Is this a current product for deQuelery, or is it a some prototype or some such unique one of a kind?

I would just like to explain that the idea of matching a synthetic ligature with the Legere reeds is relatively a new one (as far as I know) and is opening up some greater performance characteristics that are boone for the Legere devotees and could help sway more folks sitting on the fence between plastic and cane (y'all have to try them again with one of these more vibrant ligatures).
