Assuming that both ligatures will work for your C*, I personally would choose the BG Super Revelation; the metal tines that grip the reed will promote vibration (helping with projection and tone stability), while in my experience the standard Rovner is prone to slipping and tends to deaden one’s sound. Rovner does make a product not unlike the BG Super Revelation- the Versa (formerly known as the Eddie Daniels model- I use it on clarinet and on my Otto Link Super Tone Master).
Ultimately your decision should be based on your own tastes, so the best recommendation is to try out any considered ligature before purchase. If a vendor’s online policy for returns doesn’t include a punitive restocking fee, order both and return the one(s) you don’t like.
