Mouthpieces do not include cap and ligature. A ligature that fits an
Otto Link hard rubber, or Selmer hard rubber, should work fine on the
Saxscape standard mouthpiece.
Tenor mouthpieces are available with both standard profile ("hard rubber")
and slim profile, which has similar outer dimensions to an Otto Link
metal (you can use the same ligatures). Just select "hard rubber profile"
(standard) or "slim profile" when placing your order.
Trademarks mentioned are the property of their respective owners. Saxscape is not affiliated with any of the aforementioned mouthpiece companies and mentions them only for comparison purposes.
