Great Video on Neck Cleaning! Anything for Maple Necks?

[backagain1]

This is a great video on cleaning your necks! Unfortunately, there is a disclaimer that it shouldn't be used on maple necks. Do you have one for maple necks?

You can use the Wonder Wipes fretboard conditioner to clean your maple fretboard...you just have to wipe away the excess when you are done.

I assume that the wonder wipes are also very good for rosewood necks?

That's the conference room in SLO. We hung out in there during the Open House back when we all lived in the trees and dinosaurs darkened the skies.

That's an awesome video. I always wondered what the 'proper' method of cleaning, sanding and waxing the back of the neck was.

I guess it's time to give it a whirl. After 6 years, it's probably due

There's another good, albeit short, one out there on truss rod adjustments.

No, gunstock oil and gunstock wax are not the same. Try a gun shop/hunting outfitters shop. For the 1000 grit sandpaper, go to the auto body repair section at Canadian Tire, not the wood working section. The auto body section has all the really fine grits (1000 grit+).
