Should I oil the bore of a wooden clarinet?
Updated
Buffet Crampon says a new clarinet needs no bore oil, and warns against oil, solvents and anti-corrosion products. It advises swabbing often while playing and drying the bore fully before casing the instrument. Never store a wet swab in the case, and replace a soiled one.
