Detail 01

RovnerDark Bass Saxophone Ligature and Cap
Sale
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Ligature and cap sized for bass saxophone mouthpieces. Narrow replacement part for the handful of players who actually own a bass sax.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Bass sax players replacing a stock or damaged ligature
- Schools and rental fleets keeping a spare for a bass horn
- Doublers who need a cap to protect the reed in transit
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Bari, tenor, alto or soprano players — bass sax is much larger
- Anyone chasing a tone change rather than a working clamp
- Players who need a mouthpiece; this only holds one
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Dark model
Rovner's line name for this ligature, not a description of your sound. Treat it as a model and size code when ordering.
Detail 03
Cap included
Bass sax caps are hard to source separately, so having one in the box saves a second search.
Detail 04
Ligature, not a mouthpiece
Clamps a reed onto the mouthpiece you already play. Reed and mouthpiece are still yours to supply.
Detail 05
$27.99
Low cost for a bass sax part, where most accessories run higher. Reasonable to buy a spare.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm your mouthpiece is bass sax, not bari — the sizes are not interchangeable
- 02No mouthpiece, reed or neck included; ligature and cap only
- 03Check the cap seats over a reed without pushing the tip
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit a baritone sax?
No. Bass saxophone mouthpieces are larger than baritone. The ligature will be too loose to hold a reed on a bari piece.
02Does it work on metal mouthpieces?
Fit depends on your specific mouthpiece diameter. Metal pieces are often slimmer than rubber, so compare against your current ligature before ordering.
03Is a cap included?
Yes, the mouthpiece cap comes with the ligature.
04Which way does it go on?
Screw side away from the reed, plate flat against the reed. Slide it on, position the reed, then tighten by hand.
