It was wonderful but, when I had gotten my instrument (flute) it didn't come with a swab? I got one now though.
It could have been because the cloth I was given to use it had a string on the end of it to clean it. The other flutes in my grade had to use the stick were you put the cloth in it and them stick it in the instrument. They had gotten their instruments from this place.
