Common Questions About The E. Rousseau R6030 Ligature

Will this E. Rousseau Alto Saxophone Ligature fit my mouthpiece?

It was designed to fit all major alto saxophone mouthpiece designs, including E. Rousseau, Selmer, Vandoren, and many others, and it is intended to work especially well on most hard rubber and plastic mouthpieces.

What does the single screw design change compared to two-screw ligatures?
