Roasted Maple neck...

My advice, don't use lemon oil. Lemon is very acidic and corrosive....


Use the EB Wonder Wipes- they use orange oil which is not harsh (and smell great). I use those on my maple boards and they work fine.
 
I emailed CS a while back and got this reply:

"For the fretboard we recommend using our Ernie Ball Wonder Wipes Fretboard Conditioner. You can use any high grade lemon oil on the back of the neck and the fretboard though. For the matte finish, we use Custom Shop Flatz Matte Protectant in factory on the body. "
