TOPIC: fret board maintainance

thanks for all the info, guys.....I'll be sure to oil my fretboard the next time I change strings....

Here's a good discussion on fretboard maintenance. Everyone seems to has an opinion but using something is a great idea. I have used fast fret, string ease, almond oil, etc, I think that most any barrier is good but some are better than onthers. If applied when needed I'm not sure it makes much difference.

So Dave, i guess WD-40 isn't good?

What about Pledge? The fret board is wood.

Dave didn't reccomend furniture polish. He says First Quality has fretboard oil. I guess there may be other chemicals in the polish you don't want on a guitar. I'd go with the purpose built oil.
