" I use the JLV Ligature since it came out.. I was immediately fascinated by the quality of sound that I got with the JLV Ligature, incomparable with the other ligatures, and not happy to have a better sound, I feel more serene with my reeds (completed the leaks of air on the edges of the reed !). The soprano I dreaded a little bit becomes a lot more fun and "comfortable" to play. Even my 7-year-old son has put himself on it, (curved soprano), and he makes the difference with the classic ligature! For my part, I hear a better roundness in his sound, and more ease to play, which frankly is not a luxury when you start ... The pleasure of playing ! " Read more

" When performing and choosing my ligature one of the most important elements for me is having a ligature I trust, that gives my reed a metal to vibrate to (to center my sound), without harming my beloved and expensive mouthpiece. I have tried such a huge variety of ligatures, and have finally found one of my favorites! It is goldplated, metal, with protection on the sides to support my mouthpiece and a beautiful touch – on the side/screw a purple Rhinestone (I choose the color myself). You need to be observant of the placing of the ligature, however, as soon as you find your rhythm there’s only enjoyment left. The sound is warm, and the ligature gives more opportunities to vary the sound when changing the amount of tightening of the screw. All in all, I am very satisfied with my JLV ligature so far, and am looking forward to the continuing journey with this product of quality. A perfect match - a gold-plated ligature for my gold-plated saxophone - just what I have been missing! - Aina Helgeland Davidsen, Classical Saxophonist. " Read more
