Editorial Review Hodge Silk Swabs are premium swabs made from 100 percent 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. The tenor saxophone swabs are designed the same as the alto saxophone swabs, but with a longer cord and heavier weight.
