Tradition and innovation: the DOUBLE-PROFILE REED with a concave profile on the table side of the reed is an exclusive creation of LIGAPHONE Paris. 100% natural cane of the French Riviera.
LIGAPHONE Paris enlarges its line of innovative products with a new reed concept: the DOUBLE-PROFILE REED with a concave profile on the table side of the reed. Of the highest quality, the LIGAPHONE Double-Profile reed is a traditional reed made entirely from 100% of the famous natural cane from the Var region in France.
For the very first time in the history of woodwind accessories, both reed profiles (top and table facing) have been designed to complement each other. After long years of research, Ligaphone’s Double-Profile reed was born, combining two complementary profiles:
- LIGAPHONE’s special table facing, concave profile on the table side of the reed, permits increased vibration.
- The LIGAPHONE profile of the top facing is precisely fabricated in the traditional reed shape.
The combination of both LIGAPHONE profiles offers unprecedented possibilities and brings out the best acoustical qualities of the reed:
- frees the reed of its internal tensions : more flexibility, better articulation, no “warping” of the reed table
- makes easier sound emission
- increases the harmonic richness
- defines the caracter of each reed
- excellent value for money: more good reeds in a complete box

CanadaVery nice reeds
They feel good to play, sound nice, and are very responsive. More than worth the price.
FranceLigature pour clarinette soprano
J'avais déjà adopté la Ligaphone pour ma clarinette basse et j'en étais très satisfait, ayant parfois essayé d'autres ligatures, ce qui me permettait de confirmer que j'étais heureux de mon son avec la Ligaphone. Je viens donc d'acquérir une Ligaphone pour ma clarinette soprano et j'en suis ravi. Par contre, vous me questionnez concernant vos anches. Pour être très honnête, je ne suis pas conquis. Habitué aux Vandoren V21, je trouve que le son est moins brillant, moins timbré avec les anches Ligaphone. Mais je reste prudent car nous savons tous que les anches sont souvent inégales et parfois surprenantes si on prend le temps de les réutiliser de loin en loin...
DenmarkMy favourite reeds
Ligaphone give me the resistance I like in the palm keys of the tenor sax. And a warm soprano sax sound. I like both the jazz and the classical reeds. And the most important to me is the people at Ligaphone , Christine and Roger. They are very helpful even though I cannot speak French.
