Description

Hodge Silk Swabs are premium swabs made from 100% silk for removing moisture from woodwind instruments after each use. Hodge uses silk because it is absorbent, lint free and compressible. The swabs are large enough to wick the moisture out of the larger part of the bore, but compressible enough to pull through the neck. They pull through the fully assembled instrument. They do not leave lint in the keys. They are not stored inside the instrument so the moisture does not remain. Hodge swabs are regularly recommended by repairmen for optimum care of your instrument. The silk saxophone swabs are designed to go all the way through the fully assembled saxophone. There is no need to remove the neck or carry a separate swab for the neck. This is a great convenience.

    • Absorbent And easy to Use
Color: Purple
I bought this saxophone swab as a replacement for one that was a part of a kit. That swab developed holes in it after a short time. It's too early to judge durability on this swab as I just got it. I do have some observations on it after a few uses. First, it absorbs moisture better than the common, cheap swab. I could see the difference right away. Second, this swab doesn't get caught while pulling it though the sax body. The weight is coated. Third is the size. This swab has more material than the cheaper swabs do. It fills the body better. I thought about buying the tenor sax swab but using this swab on an alto sax works well. It has enough material to clean effectively and the string is more than long enough. It's definitely a more expensive option but if it has decent durability it is worth the extra money in my opinion. I hand wash and hang dry swabs so I'm optimistic that this swab will last a lot more than a few months. ... show more

    • Standard Silk Swab
Color: Purple
Works exactly as intended. I use it for both the neck and body of my instrument. It never gets stuck and it does a good job collecting any moisture.

    • So Far The Best Swab for Woodwinds.
Color: Black
So far the best swab. It does not absorb moisture but holds moisture on the surface of the swab and drags it out of the horn. It pulls through easily and the moisture (no it's not spit) dries quickly on the swab. The "absorbing" swabs ... just don't absorb much moisture no matter what they say. A strong hint ... Buy the tenor version for all your horns and shorten the string on the weight for each horn. The weight on the string will go all the way through alto and tenor, including the mouthpiece, at least all of mine. The tenor swab also works great on clarinet, except for the mouthpiece. If that matters, put on a smaller weight. Another tip: I also use one of those fuzzy "Stuff It" things for gigs, without swabbing, along with a dollar bill folded to fit under the g# key on gigs. It's fast for a quick get-away. OK ... I have been told by at least two repair geniuses not to do that. Two points: I've never had a problem with my g# pad sticking, EXCEPT when I did not use the dollar bill ... And the fuzzy has never caused a problem with my horn. Oh, the criticism on the fuzzy??? It does not absorb and holds moisture against the pad. No, it does not absorb, it wicks moisture away from pads and brass ... And you wash it occasionally. ... show more

    • Works great for a tenorsax too!
Color: Purple
This cloth actually works better for my tenor sax than the larger one I bought that was designed for a tenor. It fits through the neck and mouthpiece better than the larger cloth, and the cord is long enough to use with a tenor too. It dries much faster than other cloths I have used. This is the best way to clean out your sax, especially if you keep it on a stand when not playing it. But it's also great to use before jamming one of those felt rods down the horn and packing it in your case. I simply wrap it in a dry cloth before packing it into my case so the case doesn't get damp, then hang it out to dry when I get home. ... show more

    • Highly Recommend!
Color: Purple
Despite the title of alto saxophone swab, this swab works for my tenor and soprano in addition to the alto. The counterweight makes cleaning the saxophone a breeze! Definitely worth the affordable price.
