JLV AMBASSADOR

« Superiority & Freedom »

The JLV ligature stands out immediately by its design, its aesthetics, and its ability to fully exploit the timbre and sound of the reed.
After freeing myself from the constraints of other ligatures, I found my solution: JLV, my choice for the tenor saxophone and all saxophones.

An experience as delightful as a Parisian café, accompanied by a fine cabernet and an enchanting gaze.

HIS SAXOPHONE EQUIPMENT

It is immediately clear that the JLV ligature is superior in its design, its appearance, and its ability to fully exploit the timbre and

sound of the reed.

It took me time to free myself from the constraints imposed by

other ligatures.

JLV is my solution.
JLV is my ligature of choice for the tenor saxophone and

for all saxophones.

Playing with this JLV ligature is like sitting at the terrace of a Parisian café, savoring a robust French cabernet while gazing into the beautiful eyes of a French woman.
