 Re: Wooden barrel has stream of "dryness"

I'm sure it's plenty oiled.

It looks like something on the wood. Try rubbing it off, like with a lightly damp rag or dry toothbrush. It might be deposits of some sort. If you rotate your bell to a different position when you play, does the "river" move with it or stay at the bottom?

I used a soft bottle brush on the bore if my horn. When I did, it removed a bunch of stuff that I thought was raised grain. If it was grain, it was very soft and insubstantial, but it was probably deposits of some sort. I always swab it after every use, but the swab didn't remove it. A quick brushing did. Hardly anything came out, but the bore was noticeably smoother.

There could also be something in the wood right there that is repelling the oil.
