H-Ligature & Cap, Baritone Sax, Gold-plated (fits Graftonite mouthpieces)
The gold-plated H-Ligature & Cap for Baritone Sax was conceived as a "retro" version of the famous Harrison ligature, used by many of the worlds greatest clarinetists and saxophonists. Rico's H-ligature offers all of the sought-after features of the popular Harrison design, and each comes with Rico's unique mouthpiece cap, made of soft, overmolded plastic. The HBS1G fits Rico's Graftonite Baritone mouthpieces.H-Ligatures feature a four-point system, which applies equal pressure to the reed. The H-ligature holds the reed firmly to the table of the mouthpiece, assuring better contact, and therefore reducing leaks along the side rails. Additional support has been added to the ligature brackets to increase durability. H-ligatures feature a two-screw, inverted design. Each H-ligature includes Rico's unique mouthpiece cap.Since the acquisition of Rico by D'Addario & Co., Rico has strengthened its position as the global leader in woodwind reeds and accessories.
