Gem Silk Oboe Swab | Blue (IN-STOCK)

The Gem Silk Oboe Swab is a favorite among professional oboists for its highly absorbent, lint-free material. It prevents moisture buildup and protects delicate pads. Tapered with thinner cut allows it to pass easily through the narrow top joint without getting stuck Rubber-coated weight prevents the metal weight from clanking against and scratching the delicate bore as it drops Secondary unweighted safety/trailing tail string allows you to pull the swab out in either direction if it ever catches inside the instrument High compressibility due to pure silk fabric, so it wicks away heavy moisture while being compressible enough to fit easily through both the narrower and wider bores of the oboe
