 To swab or not to swab - mouthpiece edition
Author: michael13162

I recently bought an expensive mouthpiece and was told to take off the piece before swabbing. I've been following those instructions for about half a month now and the inside of the mouthpiece has started growing some sort of yellowish goo. It's pretty easy to wash away, but I can't reach into the very middle of it from the tip nor the bottom so it's not being thoroughly cleaned. Should I continue taking off the mouthpiece before swabbing or should I just swab it along with the rest of the clarinet?

I don't want to damage it at all, but the dirt accumulating inside isn't very pleasing...
