  ■YANAGISAWA / Yanny Ligature
  
  Introducing the new Yanagisawa "Yanny Ligature" (nicknamed "Yanny Nico-chan") is reminiscent of Yanagisawa's popular "Magical Ligature" and features a design that looks like a smiling face!
  The reed is in contact with the four oval surfaces and holds firmly. It features a moderate resistance, a light and cheerful sound, and a warm and cohesive sound. The oar-like design makes it easy to grip, and the one-screw reverse-tightening structure is adopted. It is a ligature with good response and excellent total balance.
  
  ■ Release date: Scheduled for Thursday, September 23, 2021
  * It will be shipped from our company after the release date.
