The Vandoren LC51BP M/O ligature fits most standard hard rubber and plastic mouthpieces.

Optimum Screw:
The special Optimum ligature thread allows you to tighten the screw with only a few turns. This often over looked feature can be a real advantage in situations that require a quick reed change.

Contact Points:
Two small contact points in the reed channel secure the reed without dampening or restricting its natural vibrations. The result is quick response and crisp articulation.

Independant Collar:
The M/O securley holds the reed to the mouthpiece table without restriction. A formed independent collar avoids any side contact or lateral compression that would interfer with the reed.

Inverted Symmetrical Suspension:
To Function properly, a reed must vibrate evenly from one side to the other. The M/O's unique double-track mechanism provides uniform, symmetrical suspension across both sides of the reed. A single screw inverted on the opposite side of the reed, deliverys sufficient torque to hold the reed in place without suffocating it.

Light Weight:
The M/O is constructed from a lightweight brass that allows the ligature to freely interact and sympathetically resonate with the reed rather than constrict and impede its motion. rather than fighting with the reed, the M/O unleashes the reeds energy to enhance your playing experience and musical expression.

 Available in four finishes - Gold, Silver, Black, and Pewter.
