Rico H-ligature & cap for hard rubber alto saxophone mouthpieces
The silver-plated H-Ligature & Cap for Alto Sax was conceived as a
“retro” version of the famous Harrison ligature, used by many of the
worlds greatest clarinetists and saxophonists. Rico’s H-ligature offers
all of the sought-after features of the popular Harrison design, and
each comes with Rico’s unique mouthpiece cap, made of soft, overmolded
plastic.
H-Ligatures feature a four-point system, which applies
equal pressure to the reed. The H-ligature holds the reed firmly to the
table of the mouthpiece, assuring better contact, and therefore reducing
leaks along the side rails. Additional support has been added to the
ligature brackets to increase durability. H-ligatures feature a
two-screw, inverted design. Each H-ligature includes Rico’s unique
mouthpiece cap.
Since the acquisition of Rico by D’Addario

woodwind reeds and accessories. Rico’s state-of-the-art reed research
center in Southern California employs a collaboration of agronomists,
scientists, and musicians to produce top-quality reeds, including Rico
Reserve premium reeds for clarinet and saxophone. Rico reeds are
designed to benefit all levels of musicians, from the beginner to the

perform with Rico reeds, such as Mark Nuccio, Jerry Bergonzi, Chris
Potter, Benny Golson, Ernie Watts, Bob Sheppard, Henri Bok, Richie
