Well I just got my 7th EBMM but the only one with a Roasted maple neck. Any advice on how to clean and care for would be appreciated. Do I just use the Gunstock oil & Wax that I use on my JP6/7 or do I need something different?

The Guitar is a Silo Special in Buttercream with Roasted Maple neck.

Thanks in Advance.

I would say just to keep it wiped down after every time you play it. The oil EBMM use is certainly resilient enough to stand the test of time if well cared for.

Use the same procedure as on regular necks- B&C oil and wax and you are ready to go.
Congrats on your new Ball, remember to post some pictures coz we have rule here : no pics , no guitar :)

Is there anything in particular that we might do to care for the roasted maple fretboard? The video and discussion talks about the ernie ball product for conditioning the fretboard. It's noted in the beginning of the video not to use on maple fingerbaords.

Yeah... Still to this day nothing "official" from EBMM about maple boards (with my incoming maple board BFR, I've looked). Let me know if I'm wrong... anyone...

The OP did ask about maple necks though, which the video does cover. Maple boards though, different story.... Even though I've heard you can use wonder wipes on them. Not officially, though. :)
