Brought to you by Hodge, the ASB1 Alto Sax Silk Swab, made of ultra-absorbent, 100% silk, is designed to gently and effectively wick away moisture from the inside of alto saxophones. Its streamlined shape and weighted end allow it to smoothly glide through the saxophone's curved body and neck, while the silk material absorbs condensation to keep your instrument clean and prevent corrosion. For saxophonists who value precision and care, the ASB1 is an indispensable tool for instrument maintenance.
Lint-Free Silk Material
The ASB1 swab is constructed from high-quality silk fibers that are naturally resistant to lint and debris. Its soft, pliable material gently collects moisture and grime without leaving behind stray threads that could clog keyholes or pads. The swab's silk fibers are also non-abrasive, so they won't scratch the saxophone's delicate inner surface during use.
Weighted for Controlled Movement
To facilitate smooth passage through the saxophone's tapered body, the ASB1 swab features a weighted end in an aerodynamic teardrop shape. The weighted end gives musicians precise control over the swab's movement, allowing it to glide into even narrow areas of the instrument. The swab's streamlined design also prevents snagging on keys or other parts, enabling efficient and frustration-free cleaning.
A Rainbow of Stylish Colors
Hodge offers the ASB1 swab in a variety of vibrant colors including red, blue, green and yellow in addition to traditional black. The colorful swabs add a touch of personal style to any saxophonist's maintenance kit. Whatever hue you choose, you can be confident the ASB1 will keep your alto saxophone clean and protected.
