  • Best flute swab ever
Style: Flute
This swab is extremely absorbent and effective. Stiff but soft and gentle on the flute!
Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2024 by Greg

  • Time saver!
Style: Soprano Sax
I have become a big fan of these D’Addario swabs. I have one for each of my horns. They come in specific sizes for soprano, alto, and tenor. If you have a budget horn that came with the fluffy ones, get rid of that and get one of these for your horns! Because these are far superior having lint free, long fibers, they can reach the tone holes and pads. After using the cloth swab, I use this by spinning and moving it up and down opening all the closed keys to help dry them off. My incidence of sticky keys has nearly disappeared without having to individually use drying cloths or papers. The fibers are long enough to brush the tone holes where they contact the pads. This has significantly reduced the time that I spend on cleaning up my instruments. Now, I may only have to do intricate cleaning once every month or two. ... show more

  • Does the job!
Style: Bb Clarinet
Handy to store and it removes the moisture in my clarinet after I finish playing. It is a good cleaning tool for the money.

  • Should have looked closer.
Style: Bb Clarinet
The swabs are fine but I wished I would have noticed there wasn’t a handle on them.

  • Smooth as silk
Style: Alto Sax
I have always used a silk swab and an end plug on my sax. This pad guard minimizes the swabbing and offers better end plug protection for the octave stem. It slides in and out easily and is nice and soft.

  • Great brand I needed this for my saxophone
Style: Alto Sax
D’Addario say no more. I got a student saxophone so I can begin my learning journey with this instrument. unfortunately the cleaning clothes they provide are not adaquit for how well I want to take care of my instrument so that's where this pad guard comes into play. It does it's job exactly as described making cleaning a lot easier than pulling a cloth through the instrument with a string. I highly recommend this to anyone looking to speed up their cleaning process with a brand name you can trust. ... show more

  • Works as intended
Style: Alto Sax
Definitely takes the spit out of my kids sax.

  • Shorter than described
Style: Flute
The flute padsaver itself is fine but I'm rating it only 3 stars because the item is only 14" long, though the description says it is 18.25". The discrepancy probably won't matter to a flute player but I ordered it based upon its described length, for use in a bassoon. Unfortunately it is not long enough, though if itmatched the stated length it would have been perfect. ... show more
