Keeping moisture out of your bassoon after each session is one of the most important habits you can build, and the right swab makes it easy. The Hodge Silk Bassoon Swab is designed to clean both the boot joint and the wing joint — so one swab takes care of the entire body of the instrument in a single pass (with the bocal removed).
Hodge makes their swabs from 100% silk for good reason. Silk is highly absorbent, soaking up moisture better than cotton or chamois, and it's naturally compressible — meaning it can adapt to the bassoon's varying bore sizes without getting stuck. It also leaves no lint behind in the keys or tone holes. A ball chain weight is attached to guide the swab through the boot joint's U-bend reliably.
Product Features:
- Cleans both the boot joint and wing joint in one pass
- Made from 100% silk — absorbent, lint-free, and compressible
- Outperforms cotton and chamois for moisture removal
- Ball chain weight guides the swab through the boot joint U-bend
- Available in multiple colors
- Compatible with standard bassoon (bocal removed for full-body swabbing)
