    Just did all of mine, minus the sanding. Murphy's oil soap, tru oil, then gunstock wax. They're all "showroom"now.

    Once or twice a year I give them the treatment, less sanding, as well. Wish I could get all the stains out but I've learned to live with them. The Wonder Wipes have a way of making stains almost look like part of the grain anyway.

    Is it a maple fretboard? I presume it is. I have an Axis w/ maple neck and want to totally clean the fretboard. Would you rub it down a little, oil and wax that too?

    Sorbz62, I suggest reading the FAQ on the music-man website. My guitar has a ebony fretboard so I just used wonder wipes. Not sure if you can sand the maple fretboard but don't quote me. For the back of the neck just grab some #0000 steel wool and gunstock oil/wax and you're set.
