A.S.S. Vid / Maple Neck Mojo

[brasco68]

This guy is a killer player...more chops than a butcher shop, playing a beautiful quilted Super Sport, however I think I've found the dirtiest maple neck I've ever seen on a Music Man.

Hey Dhalif come visit Korea. I need to test run a BFR JP. Wanna see how that neck feels. Or I can come to Singapore.

But this video and the tribute Axis series is really along me wonder about an Axis.

Jeez. I'd have to go far, far out of my way to get a guitar neck that dirty. Must NEVER wash his hands. Nice playing though.

I could play like that if I'd never gone to school! I have just bought my first EBMM, a Silhouette Special. as I'm left-handed it was a real find. I say first because I'm already planning the next one. It has been used but has been well looked after but the fingerboard is a little dirty. You can tell which were the only keys he played in. RobW mentioned wonder wipes. What do you recommend to clean the fingerboard?Also what do I use to treat the neck, is it gun oil? Thanks in advance.

Hi Siro and welcome. Plenty of good threads on the forum about neck cleaning.
You haven't stated your location - is it the USA?

If so the general consensus of opinion is to use Murphys Soap Oil.

It kinda depends on how dirty the neck is?

If it’s just a little grubby you could get away with a light sanding using 400 – 800 then 1200 grade wet and dry paper use it dry, then recoating with Birchwood Casey Gunstock oil.
