This is an affordable and easy-to-use ligature from Silverstein, perfect for beginners. Since switching to this, my sound suddenly became more pleasing to me. I purchased this in 2020 and used it for about 3 years. I took good care of it, so it's in very good condition. I am currently using a different Silverstein ligature, so I am selling this one. The Omni Cap is not included. Please be aware of this. Omni Caps are sold on the Silverstein website, as well as on Mercari, Amazon, and Rakuten. For reference, this ligature is said to pair well with the B40 mouthpiece. Please try it if you'd like.
