Pair the custom-fit M|O ligature with the new Masters mouthpiece to experience a revolutionary quality that only the craftsmen at Vandoren can create. It's a match made in Paris.
The M|O ligature's unique double-track mechanism provides uniform, symmetrical suspension across both sides of the reed for even vibration. Two small contact points in the formed reed channel secure the reed to heighten its natural vibrations for quick response and crisp articulation. Lightweight construction allows the custom-fit M|O ligature to freely interact with the reed to enhance musical expression.
METICULOUSLY DESIGNED
With a perfect balance of harmonic richness and stability, roundness of sound and projection, and evenness of pitch, the new Masters mouthpiece is finely crafted. Just like the music it's meant to play.
ENHANCE YOUR SOUND
The Masters mouthpiece features an elongated facing that enables immediate harmonic richness and greater stability in the upper register. The new interior chamber design enhances roundness of sound projection. This revolutionary design helps musicians achieve a more resonant staccato and maintain an evenness of pitch throughout all the registers to greatly improve their musical expression.
INTRODUCING THE CL6
The Masters mouthpiece is now available in the new CL6 model. It features the same round, full sound as the CS5, with increased ease of blowing and projection.
