Features
  • 100% Pure Silk

  • Absorbant, Lint Free, Compressible

  • Designed to keep this area clean and to keep gunk from building up


Description

Hodge Silk Swabs are made from 100% silk. Silk is very absorbent, soaking up water in instruments better than any other material on the market, including both cotton and chamois. Silk is also very compressible, making it possible to pull through instruments with large variations in bore size. In addition, silk is lint free. The silk baritone saxophone swabs are uniquely designed to swab out the circular part of the body after each playing session. This swab is designed to keep this area clean and to keep gunk from building up. It is a foam covered flexible snake, 24 inches long and the diameter of the bore of the circular section of the saxophone, with a silk covering which quickly absorbs the water that has accumulated. This swab is pushed into the top of the saxophone and around the loop and then pulled back out removing the moisture. The neck is cleaned similarly. This swab comes in the color Black.

5Hodge Silk Baritone Saxophone Swab  Nov 09, 2010 By nsley
I have read on-line that since the baritone saxophone has a curved neck and a spit valve that a swab is not a necessary item for proper maintenance. The product description on Amazon didn't give much information other than the picture that shows a long and narrow black tube like device. I have Hodge silk swabs for my other saxophones and wouldn't consider putting my saxes away without using them so I decided to try the baritone swab. I am glad I did. Even after draining the spit valve as thoroughly as possible and then using the swab, it comes out wet from end to end so it is definitely doing the job it was designed to do. The swab is about 2' long and about 1" thick. It is covered in silk with a spongy inside and a rigid but flexible "spine" along its entire length. It fits tightly and can be inserted completely into the body of the saxophone. It can also be inserted into the neck but I perfer to use a Hodge silk clarinet swab for that. It is well made and should last a long time. It can be machine washed. The instructions for use and cleaning are on the packaging. I will definitely replace it if it ever wears out.
