Great value for money

Compared to other brands, this offers better protection at a reasonable price. The texture is creamy and melts easily upon contact with the strings.

Good quality, pleasant smell

The sandalwood scent is very subtle and relaxing. It applies smoothly without leaving a greasy residue. I deducted one star only because the tin is a bit small.

Excellent for preserving silk strings

This balm works wonders on my old silk strings. It keeps them supple and prevents them from drying out during the winter months. Highly recommended for serious players.

Restored my vintage Guqin strings

My strings were becoming brittle, but after applying this balm regularly for two weeks, they feel much more resilient. The tone quality has also improved.
