Bonade: a ligature that has become a standard
The Bonade ligature is one of the iconic models found for decades in the clarinet world. Its simple and robust design aims at a clear goal: to provide reliable reed tightening without complications, in order to maintain a consistent response from the mouthpiece.
For which musician and playing situations?
This ligature is suitable for both beginner clarinetists (to secure the reed and facilitate setup) and intermediate and advanced players seeking a durable accessory for rehearsals, concerts, orchestra, wind ensemble, or chamber music. It fits versatile uses, from classical to popular music.
Sound and design
A ligature mainly affects the stability of the reed: even tightening can help achieve easier sound production, clearer response, and better consistency across registers. The nickel-plated finish provides a shiny look and a solid feel, while the reverse screw offers a different tightening ergonomics depending on your preferred position on the mouthpiece.
Recommended compatible accessories
To preserve the finish and longevity, a clarinet swab and a case that allows storing the instrument without pressure on the mouthpiece and ligature are recommended (compatibility to be verified according to your setup).

The reversed screw tightening positions the screw ergonomically differently on the mouthpiece. This setup allows selecting a tightening position adapted to playing preferences.
Is the Bonade Reversed Screw nickel-plated ligature suitable for a beginner clarinetist?
This model is suitable for beginners to secure the reed placement. It can also be used in practice, concert, or orchestral settings. The even tightening aims to provide a more consistent response from the mouthpiece.
What finish does this Bonade ligature have?
The nickel-plated finish has a shiny gray appearance and conveys a sense of robustness.
Can a ligature be exchanged after opening?
For hygiene reasons, an opened ligature must remain free of any signs of use to be eligible for refund or exchange. Using a clarinet swab and a case that does not stress the mouthpiece are recommended to preserve the nickel-plated finish.
