Oh no!! Not only do Saxophone players constantly change mouthpieces and reeds, but they also change out their “Ligs” (Ligatures, I guess you mean) on a regular basis TOO?!
Do they (I’m a rookie, with absolutely no knowledge or history with the Saxophone) wear out?
If nothing else, I’ve learned lately how much attention apparently needs to be placed in “maintaining” the Saxophone. Unlike my “guitar” world, where all you really need to do is change out the strings, keep it clean and away from humidity.
How much money do you figure the average typical regular-user Saxophone player puts out in maintenance fees for parts and repairs, in a year?????
