Received product promptly and in great condition. Useful - and necessary for wooden instruments. Potential to leave lint in lumen. Seems to work well.

I am not quite sure where to start reviewing an instrument swab? I have recently upgraded to a fine consort of Moeck Rottenburg recorders, and felt I needed to do something better with quality instruments than I have done with my older less expensive collection. Having this swab as well as the one from the other company that does the multi-color swabs, I can say that this swab is very well constructed, is the right size to pass through the bore of the instrument without binding, and the even colors make it more refined and professional looking than other swabs I have used. I also haven't broken or bent it yet, and none of my instruments have gotten moldy or cracked, so I have to say it must be doing its job.

I purchased one for my tenor first, I liked it well enough, that I ordered one for Alto as well. The shipping on both was very fast from the manufacturer, and the yarn used is different than the other swab company, I don't notice colored fibers in the bore with this swab. I will probably end up getting this brand for the other instruments as the need arises.
