Amazing classical lig

saxsim 19.03.2019

Phenomenal ligature, made much more of a difference to my sound and response than I've ever noticed in a ligature change. For me, I found it is very clearly suited for classical playing, it really smooths out the edges of the sound which means its not the most effective for jazz playing, quite hard to get a raucous sound or any buzz out of.

Nicely done ligature

CELEBESARIO 01.12.2017

I usually use Rovner Versa and I was trying to find a new sound out of my mouthpiece and alto saxophone. A friend of mine recommended me to buy this Francois Louis Ultimate XL and I can say I am not disappointed. Although this ligature is not my main equipment, I can say that this offers much range of sound that I never discovered back then. I like how it affects my sound positively.

Excelente abrazadera

Jorge4689 10.04.2015

Esta abrazadera, bien apretada, permite tocar a un volumen mínimo, mucho más flojo que con ninguna otra que haya probado, prácticamente como un clarinete, mientras que el volumen máximo es el normal. Sólo por este aumento de rango dinámico, ya merecería la pena. Ayuda a tocar más relajado.
La respuesta es rapidísima, y noble con cualquier boquilla. Tengo la versión de tenor, y esa incluso estabiliza una boquilla tan difícil como una Dukoff metálica.
No colorea el timbre en absoluto, revelando el auténtico color de cada boquilla.
La única pega que le encuentro es que, a pesar de lo que dice en las especificaciones, no encaja perfectamente en una Otto Link Tone Master, aunque con el tiempo "se va haciendo". Resulta un poco molesto poner la caña hasta que te acostumbras.
Inprescindible colocarle una caña vieja cuando vas a guardar la boquilla. Si no lo haces te arriesgas a que te raye todo el asiento de la boquilla con la placa de metal, haciéndote un buen destrozo.
Por lo demás, una abrazadera excelente. No creo en productos milagro, y llevaba 10 años sin cambiar mi equipo. Ahora todos mis saxos llevan una abrazadera FL...
