By preventing buildup that damages strings and fret wires, it extends the life and tonal clarity of your instrument. It also includes a high-quality polishing cloth for instrument maintenance, making it an essential accessory for serious guitarists who want to maintain peak performance and avoid costly replacements. ## Description In the course of time, all Steel, Bronze and Phosphor Bronze instrument strings lose their tone, clarity, 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 actually forced under the strings by the action of the fingers, and is then almost impossible to remove. This not only damages the tone and life of the string but also then acts like sandpaper on the fret wires, 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. Makes playing feel smoother and newer. Fits easily into pockets and instrument cases. Review: Works as expected - Purchased this lighter colour for a second guitar with different strings that are coated. So far working well to give them a quick clean after use. Review: Its ok. - Yeah its ok. Good for getting under your strings etc. But people claiming your strings come up gleaming after using it... not so sure about that. It removes some, but not all dirt and debris. And to be clear I clean my strings after just about every use. So it certainly doesn't stop the build up or entirely clean it. What i did find useful and unexpected is the cloth that comes with the card. Perfect for polishing the body of your guitar/violin etc with whatever instrument polish you use. You will get some castaway fibres the first couple of times you use it but they don't stick. Overall. Yeah. I likes. But is it as miraculous as other reviews make out? No. All that said I'd probably buy another one once this one is done simply because i like that you can get under the strings without leaving bits of microfiber clothe clinging to your frets and like I said, the polishing cloth that comes with it is very good quality ## Features - In the course of time, all Steel, Bronze and Phosphor Bronze instrument strings lose their tone, clarity, brightness and eventually become tarnished - This process is dramatically speeded up by the acid and dirt that rubs off fingers whilst playing.

The swipe is pretty pointless if you ask me as you can easily clean underneath the strings with the cloth if you use it right. But it's just a soft cloth which I already own lots of so didn't really need this as its nothing special! ## Frequently Bought Together - The Swipe TS Guitar String Cleaner, SW101 - D'Addario Lemon Oil - Guitar Fretboard Oil - Guitar Accessories - Removes Dirt, Grease, Build Up from Instrument - Conditions to Resist Dryness - Extends Fretboard Life - GHS Fast Fret Guitar String Cleaner and Lubricant --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tw/products/48007997-ts-guitar-string-cleaner-sw101](https://www.desertcart.tw/products/48007997-ts-guitar-string-cleaner-sw101) --- *Product available on Desertcart Taiwan* *Store origin: TW* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
