A Rico Accessory Designed for Efficiency and Accessibility

For Which Musician and Usage?
This ligature is suitable for both beginners and intermediate musicians seeking a simple, robust, and consistent solution. It is perfectly suited for school, wind orchestra, rehearsals, and daily practice, wherever response consistency and ease of adjustment are priorities.
Sound and Design
Thanks to its four-point system, the ligature applies balanced pressure on the reed, contributing to a clear response and a more consistent playing feel. The reversed design and two screws promote stable tightening, while the nickel plating provides a durable finish. Depending on the version, the Rico Signature soft plastic mouthpiece cap protects the mouthpiece during transport.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
Important information : some models are offered with or without a mouthpiece cap. If you frequently transport your instrument, opting for the version with a mouthpiece cap can be a real advantage to protect the mouthpiece.
