Final check
Product questions
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
No. This is cut for Eb clarinet mouthpieces, which are noticeably smaller. A Bb mouthpiece will not seat correctly.
No. It is the ligature by itself. Reuse the cap you already have, and check that it still slides over this ligature.
Snug enough that the reed does not shift when you play. Overtightening can dent the reed and choke the response.
Plating wears at contact points over years of use. Wiping it dry after playing slows tarnish and buildup.
