I originally got this ligature when getting my first decent mouthpiece for my alto saxophone. I wanted a simpler ligature with less moving parts. My previous ligature had two screws, which was way too many in my opinion. This ligature has only one screw, and it does a perfect job in keeping your reed in place, which, arguably, is the most important job of the ligature.
What else can I say? It is a quality piece of gear, and will beat any "stock" ligatures that come as an afterthought alongside your mouthpiece or saxophone purchase.
