Rovner are a well-established, US based ligature manufacture. They have always been popular with students, teachers, and professional musicians alike, due to their reliability, and excellent quality.
The original Dark launched the first line of Rovner ligatures in 1974, and proves to be their best-selling ligature to date.
Particularly suitable for the classical clarinettist, this ligature produces a warm, full, centred sound. The body of the ligature is made of a flexible neoprene/polyester fabric, that will not stretch or rot, and is chemically impervious. The single adjusting screw, which is corrosion-resistant, is designed to reduce the time and hassle of adjusting traditional ligatures.
Made in the USA.
Is suitable for most plastic, and ebonite Bb clarinet mouthpieces.
Includes a plastic cap to protect the reed, when not in use.
Single screw design ensures quick and easy adjustment.
Non slip design, will stay in position when adjusting mouthpiece.
The Dark design gives a warmer, rounder tone with moderate resistance.

The Rovner Dark Ligature was my first upgrade Bb clarinet ligature, and 7 years later, it’s still going strong! This ligature gives me the deep, rich sound I am looking for, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality ligature, with a warm sound, at an affordable price!
