Introducing the new “Universal” ligature from Wyvern Ligs.
More control, power and projection is within your grasp.
Combining the best of the “soft” ligatures and the “hard” ligatures gives you unimaginable flexibility. You can go from the laid back mellowness of Ben Webster to the screaming altissimo of Michael Brecker in the wink of an eye.
These revolutionary ligatures are made from the wood of the tree Quercus Suber to give a beautiful warm sound which is combined with a special gold plated steel (as used in the Space Shuttle) to give power and projection. Each ligature will be hand-finished and given a unique serial number traceable back to the highly trained technician that assembled the ligature.
Another feature is the unique “Power Screw” that allows you to vary the tension and thus the nature of the sound to a very precise degree.
The universally adjustable nature of the ligature means it will fit virtually all mouthpieces on the market today.
The “Universal” is expected to retail at £89.99.
Virtuoso saxophone star Shorn Rider says of the “Universal”:
Please note the photo below is only of the prototype. The ligature will be gold plated for added warmth and projection.
These sound clips clearly demonstrate the difference between a standard soft fabric ligature, a hard metal one and the new “Universal”.
