My second-last post covered my experience with the astonishing design, engineering and sound of the ZAC Gold Plated Sterling Silver ligatures. The shimmering warm purity of the sound, the ease of expression, response and articulation and the “snug without pressure” fit on my classical mouthpieces was unparalleled. Superiour to the most expensive ligatures in my collection. Now I’m equally amazed by the far less expensive Satin Brass ligatures. Only the ZAC ligatures without a resonator plate cost less than this model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are the perfect jazz ligature. They have a darker, grainier, somewhat broader sound than the Gold Plated Silver model…a centred dense core along with incredible ease of articulation and response to the extreme highs and lows of the saxophone range at every dynamic. I put them up against a half dozen of my favourite ligatures at every price point….they are about in the middle of the price range ….and they just KILL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Very affordable…and you cannot afford to be without ’em! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I played a gig last week on Baritone and I gasped at the sound at Hermann’s Jazz Club. Unbelievably full, warm and reverberant even at the softest dynamic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now I’ve tried them on all my treasured JodyJazz Custom Dark mouthpieces and they just love each other, as do I!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My advice….GO GET ‘EM!<\/strong> The Canadian Distributor is Massullo Music<\/a> in Vancouver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
