Free vibration, perfect for students and amateur players.
For artists with budget in mind, Silverstein Works made this A-Frame Quattro Silver ligature. It has similar performance to other Silverstein A-Frame ligatures. It provides even more free reed vibration with reduced number of cords. This is an essential choice for students and amateur woodwind musicians.
Handcrafted Aglets
Beautifully matched to main body, these metal aglets prevent potential dislocation and deformation of the cord.
Harmonic Partials
The first thing you will notice is how free the reed becomes. The difference can also be seen in laboratory comparison tests that clearly show the much more defined harmonic partials of the Quattro ligature, indicating a richer, fuller sound.
Sound Adjustment Nut
The nut adjusts tension on the cord. By tightening less, the sound gets darker and a reed vibrates more. It also compensates thickness of a reed. If a reed is too thin, tightening more makes the reed sound like a thicker reed - and vice versa.
Resizable
All 2019 model ligatures are resizable. You can easily adjust ligature size with a standard 1.5 mm hex wrench. Now, you can make a ligature perfectly fit to your current or future mouthpieces.
The 2nd Evolution: Dotted Cord
Interspersed cord with a refined strand – a thinner thread for even less contact and pressure with the reed while maintaining the Ligature’s trademark design and grip. This makes all the difference for greater control, a more dynamic sound and a richer tone.
The Innovation: Fine Tuner
The new Fine Tuners change how the ligature responds to the vibrations of the reed, tuning the focus and color of your sound to give you unprecedented control and flexibility. With it, you can adjust your sound to perfectly accentuate the music you play at any time.
OmniCap
The OmniCap is small enough to fit in a narrow case, secures and protects delicate mouthpiece tip and reed, protects mouthpiece rail, preserves reed moisture, is easily washable and makes no sound when dropped.
Replaceable EZ-Pad
The pads on the bottom of the bridge are now removable and replaceable. The new bridges have smoother metal feet, reducing the risk of scratching the mouthpiece even when used without the pads. The ligature comes with 2 sets of replaceable EZ-pads.
