Your cart is empty.The Rover Dark assists in producing a full, centered tone. One can compare the results of this ligature with the age-old technology of the string ligature. Enjoyed especially by classical performers for its warm sound, the Rover Dark is our most favored and top selling ligature.Rovner ligatures hold the reed to the mouthpiece with no pressure points. Because there are no pressure points or rigid constraints on the reed, the reed seats evenly to the facing of the mouthpiece reducing stuffiness and improving tonal clarity.

I was very happy to find that the ligature came with a mouthpiece cover. I bought another brand recently and I assumed it also came with a cover and was disappointed. I have several Rovner ligatures and covers.

i got this because my register key notes weren't playing right as they used to and my metal ligature was broken and when i played with this ligature the sound was much deeper, fuller and rounder. i could play louder with this ligature and although my register key notes are still squeaking, I'm still happy that my sound has improved so much with this ligature. I am getting a new mouthpiece and I hope that will fix my problem. I definitely recommend getting this ligature because of its usefulness and cheap price.

I have really been fine-tuning my Bass Clarinet setup trying a variety of mouthpieces, ligatures and reeds. Interestingly to me is the fact that I really like this one THE BEST. I started out trying Bass variations of my favorite Bb and Eb soprano clarinets, but they just didn't hit the mark. I think it is because of the flexibility of the ligature material - allows more even distribution of pressure, as opposed to those composed of either metal or stiff leather.I very highly recommend!

I'm not entirely convinced that a ligature makes that much difference to the sound of an instrument, but this one is:-light-easy to fit & adjust-secure - it holds the reed firmly in place, and-cheap.Just what I wanted. And if you are interested in the sound, my bass certainly doesn't sound any worse than it did before my old metal one broke. It may even be better, but I can't tell.

Rovner ligatures offer better reed clamping than the traditional metal band type, they are quick and easy to set up and adjust, they are very adjustable for clamping angle and grip and come with a mouthpiece cap. Each time we have purchased a Rovner my son's playing on that instrument has improved. Finally got round to getting him a bass ligature, and as expected, it is performing faultlessly.
