In preparation for my RW Axis (soon, soon) I was wondering how I'm supposed to care for the neck? When I called in to customer service a few months ago, I was told that the standard oil & wax wouldn't do as it would leave a white-ish covering on the neck. What products should I use?

We are using a different wax on these awesome guitars, but the brand name escapes me at the moment...I will check it out tomorrow, and let you guys know. :cool: It is just a bit early to start stressing about the guitars you don't even have yet...You guys are as geeky as me :eek:

Jon,

While you're checking, tell me what kind of oil I'll need for my EBMM Razzocaster model circa 2038. :rolleyes: :D :D

By then there will be no more oil. The Lion will lay down with the Lamb, and the Eagles and Stones will be doing a farewell tour. Maybe. I don't know. :rolleyes:

Ahhh, you're killing me! Well, I am anxious but these posts are really just a way to get me out of the "Junior Member" status.

I mean, c'mon - Junior Member? You guys really know how to hurt a guy... ;)

Back to our regularly scheduled RW Axis thread...
Just you wait-the RW neck will flip you out completely. I've had mine 2 weeks, and the guitar continues to blow me away. Just an amazing guitar.

I want a Supersport hardtail with MM90s, a flamed natural maple top, and a RW neck in the worst way...

Thank you sir, much appreciated - the oil is the same, no?

BriWax

Also - and yes, I am totally geeking out here - should we use the one with toluene or without - BriWax standard or 2000 (they don't reference the article# you did above on their site)?

Thanks again...

I am not sure if they are oiling the rosewood necks...rosewood is pretty oily as it is. I will check.
