Also fits slimmer baritone sax mouthpieces
I am a synthetic reed user, which has worked well for me for years. That said, many ligatures simply make the sound too bright and uncontrollable. This ligature allows enough damping of the reed when properly positioned, usually rearward, to produce a controllable and bright response from most any reed; cane or synthetic. The intonation is excellent, also, and the sides of the reed (very important) are not unduly dampened. Some swear AT Rovners; I swear by them. A proper ligature despite contrary internet opinions, I.M.O. makes a substantial difference. I am very happy with this purchase from a fine Ebay seller.

Kansas City, 1925
1 von 1 finden das hilfreich This is likely one of the best movies I have seen about life in "The Real Band Business", having been in it
myself for five decades.
The emphasis on the involvement of gangsters in the music business, in particular in those days is by no
means overstated, nor unrealistic.
Today, most of them wear expensive suits and have Master's Degrees. Today, no machine guns, just
clever use of the law, and creative accounting methods. Little has changed.
The music is amazing, performed by some of the greatest LA Session men, and of course, the vocal
performances by Ms. Lee and Ms. Fitzgerald are stunning. Ray Heindorf, legendary arranger/composer
of much of the theme music and "bumpers" in the film brings both the Warner Brothers Orchestra, as
well as Pete Kelly's Big Seven into a level of accomplishment little heard in these types of pictures.
If you are interested in a glimpse of the struggle of a young band in Kansas City in the 1920's, and a
decent storyline, buy this movie. Not academy award material acting wise, but most enjoyable, and
a reminder of what remains the same in the music business today, for many.......

Razr is a top value!
The phone is terrific, and I like the layout of the keyboard. Plenty of features for my basic needs, and with my reduced hearing, It has plenty of volume on the earphone.
I'm still trying to figure out how to sync the calendar and address book to my Mac I Book, however.
Nothing in the manual, but I'm not giving up. The Apple website says this model IS SUPPORTED, so hope springs eternal.
So far, so good.
