The Rico by DAddario Anti-Microbial Swab Small is ideal for woodwind players who want a cleaner safer way to maintain their instruments. Made with Silvadur® silver ion technology the fabric naturally prevents bacteria and odour build-up keeping both your swab and instrument fresher for longer without the need for chemical treatments. The highly absorbent material soaks up 30 percentage more moisture than standard silk swabs helping to reduce internal build-up after playing. Its soft non-abrasive texture protects delicate surfaces while the flexible design moves easily through narrow bores. With durability for up to 50 washes its a practical long-term solution for daily instrument care.
