Mouthpieces and reeds are essential in shaping the timbre and tone of woodwind instruments. As such, it's just as essential to keep them well protected when your clarinet or saxophone is packed in a case and especially when placed on a stand. Since the smallest scratch or bit of damage can have a dramatic effect on the sound of your instrument, not to mention your playing pleasure, it's worth using a ligature to protect the mouthpiece. Most ligatures will come with a cap included but caps are also available separately. Always make sure to pick up a ligature or cap that's been specifically designed for your instrument so that you're sure of a perfect fit. For instance, if you're the proud player of an alto-saxophone, there are ligatures made for precisely your kind of sax. To quickly find the right ligature for your instrument, please feel free to make use of our handy filters - found on the left-hand side of our site pages. If you're just looking for some fresh reeds, then we have plenty to choose from, along with a generous host of other accessories, and if you want to see everything to do with wind instruments, we also have a healthy host of wind instruments and accessories available.
