A Nod to Classic Ligatures
The Rico H ligature captures the "vintage" spirit of historic ligatures favored by many musicians: firm reed hold, controlled contact, and quick setup. Its four-point concept aims to stabilize the reed without creating excessive pressure points, resulting in a more consistent playing feel.
For Which Musician and Use?
This ligature is designed for clarinetists and saxophonists seeking reliable daily tightening, both in rehearsal and on stage. It suits beginners looking to secure their sound production as well as advanced players who want a clear response and well-defined articulation, in classical, jazz, pop, or marching band settings.
Sound and Design
Thanks to its balanced tightening, the Rico H promotes a quick response and a more stable attack, while helping to maintain good homogeneity across registers. The silver-plated finish provides an elegant aesthetic, while the included mouthpiece cap protects the mouthpiece during transport.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
The Rico Signature mouthpiece cap is included: ideal for protecting the mouthpiece tip and table between playing sessions.
