not just a ligature but a tool to discover an entirely new sound.
Introducing a brand new ligature line from Silverstein Works. Continuing the heritage and spirit of The original Silverstein Ligatures, the PRELUDE offers a more affordable choice as a tool to discover an entirely new sound from one's current instrument.
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 our Ligature, indicating a richer, fuller sound.
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. (Additional Fine Tuners are now available for separate purchase.)
Each Ligature is hand made piece by piece using the finest materials. The custom cord is created with the same technology and manufacturing process as the cords used on the “Sky Crane” that lowered the Mars Rover onto the surface of another planet.
