The Swipe is a string and instrument cleaning kit. The unique design makes it easy to simultaneously clean the underside of the strings and frets. The Swipe will make your strings last longer and keep the tone of your guitar bright. Included in the pack is a microfibre cleaning cloth for all other areas of your guitar. From Swipe:"Over time, all Steel, Bronze and Phosphor Bronze instrument strings lose their tone, clarity, and brightness and eventually become tarnished. This process is dramatically speeded up by the acid and dirt that rubs off fingers whilst playing. For a player whose fingers sweat, this can lead to a new set of strings within days. Many players wipe the surface of their strings after playing, but most of the dirt is forced under the strings by the fingers' action, and it is almost impossible to remove. This damages the tone and life of the string and then acts like sandpaper on the fret wire, eventually leading to premature string and very costly fret wire replacement. UNTIL NOW! Created by a guitarist fed up with the expense and aggravation of constant string replacement, 'The Swipe' easily removes the harmful sweat, grease and dirt build-up, not only from the tops of the strings, but more importantly, from underneath, giving the strings and fret wires a longer life, as well as extending the period of tonal clarity. Polishes fret wires and strings brings new life to tarnished and dirty strings."
