// Vandoren Ligature CARBON for Alto Sax // It combines the lightest weight of any standard ligature with the extremely high rigidity of carbon. Its light weight allows the reed to vibrate freely without interfering with its natural vibration. It simply performs the original role of a ligature, which is to hold the reed in place. High rigidity prevents loss due to unnecessary resonance and transmits acoustic energy in an optimal manner. Superior projection, easy-to-use attack and articulation. The natural vibration of the reed is achieved as if the ligature were not present. This is a ligature with a completely new concept. The fastening screws use Vandoren's unique double track screws, which hold the reed with uniform force. The stainless steel tightening screw and titanium screw holder maintain the tightness of the ligature once it has been set, preventing it from slipping during performance. *The carbon ligature is designed exclusively for Vandoren mouthpieces.■Made in France■Thumb screw: Gold (LC87GOP) ■Accessories: Plastic cap, outer box *Mouthpiece and reed are not included.
