❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How does the L12RS differ from the L12?
Both are fabric FABRIC series ligatures for alto saxophone. The key difference is the plate: the L12 has a rubber plate and produces a warm, round tone suited to chamber music. The L12RS has a silver-plated metal plate and delivers a brighter sound with easier staccato, making it better suited for ensemble work. The choice comes down to musical style and preferred tonal character.
How does the silver-plated plate affect the sound?
The silver-plated metal plate creates a firmer, more precise contact point with the reed compared to a rubber plate. This produces a brighter, more open tone with a crisper attack and easier staccato — ideal for ensemble playing where projection and clarity are important.
What is a FABRIC series ligature?
BG France FABRIC series ligatures wrap evenly around the reed across the full contact area, producing a softer, more homogeneous character than metal ligatures. BG France offers several FABRIC models with different plates to suit different sound preferences.
What is the ACB3 cap?
The ACB3 is a BG France mouthpiece cap for the alto saxophone. It is placed over the mouthpiece between playing sessions to protect the reed from damage and the mouthpiece from dust and knocks. It is supplied as standard with the L12RS ligature.
