Guitar Honey Fretboard Oil - Premium Guitar Fretboard Cleaner and Fretboard Conditioner For All Dark Natural Woods - Rosewood, Ebony, and Exotic - 2 Oz. Spray Bottle

Gerlitz Guitar Honey is a must have for all guitarists, in my opinion. Ypu need to treat your fretboard well. Guitar Honey works for me, last a lot longer. It says it's a combo of lemon oil & linseed oil. All I know is that ot works extremely well. I know it works on Ebony, Rosewood, Brazzy rosewood, East Indian rosewood, ziricote, cocoboloo fretboards. I got my first bottle from a luthier years ago, who still uses it on all the different fretboards he works with. Plus, I'd had great luck with Gerlitz #1 guitar wax before that, so I gave it a try. Very good stuff. Plus a little really does go a long way. Just give it enough time to dry. New players today are lucky we have so many guitar treatments, kits, and a lot of other things. What would we di wothout 8 bottle "Cleaning systems"? Hmm. In 1979, I was about 14 & watched my best friend clean his Gibson Les Paul fretboard & guitar body & neck with Pledge. Honestly, doubt it did any harm, if any. Just smelled lemony fresh., lol. We didnt have an internet or a lot of older players to give us much advice. But with the more exotic & expensive woods on fretboards today, we all need to be more careful. I used to use lemon oil, but it only lasts about a week. Guitar Honey in my experience lasts a lot longer. It's a shame Amazon isn't selling this themselves. Guitar Honey can be found just about anywhere for about 8.99. It's a good quality product, imo. Hopefully, they'll start selling it again. Cheers!

I was looking for a fretboard conditioner that does not contain lemon and/or silicon because those products make everything worse gradually. This oil is easy to apply and does not ruin the fingerboard, like many others do. It leaves the fretboard nice and clean, with a nice smooth feel to it. Non sticky, non oily and without any irritating scent either, which can be the case with other products.I have already used it on a few of my Gibsons ( all with rosewood fretboards) with great results. As a professional artist I have no use for low quality products that do not deliver what they promise and this Guitar Honey fingerboard oil is a good product, Period. Good price, value for money and very fast shipping too . What more can you ask for? O.k, I would have loved a label with all the ingredients used in this magic guitar elixir, but perhaps it all adds to the mystery....

I used this on the fretboard of my Fender Koa Tele and my Fender Acoustic. My Tele's fretboard wasn't as dried out as the acoustic. The acoustic has always been pretty dried out since I got it years ago, and nothing else seemed to keep the wood smooth and beautiful for much longer than a few weeks. A friend I ran into in a local guitar store told me he fell in love with Guitar Honey after the first try. He uses it every other time he restrings his guitars, and it last between a few restrings, even on the driest fretboards. I tried it and it worked like a charm! It worked great for both my guitars, and my tele's neck still looks nice. I admit it has been a few months since I have restrung my acoustic as I have coated strings on it that last a long time, but the wood is just now starting to look dry again, so that's better than the results I've had with other fretboard conditioners.

Best stuff you can buy for your guitar needs

I have quite a few guitars. The one in the least good shape is an old Squier Bullet I have that needs a lot of work, but the neck is in decent shape other than it needed a good cleaning, so it was my guinea pig for this stuff. Wow, what a difference. It really brought that fingerboard back to life. It was dry and ashy and just plain dying, but this stuff made it look brand new and it feels great too. The guy that does my setups/repairs for my guitars has my brand new ESP LTD M-17 as we speak and is going to use this stuff on it. We'll see how that goes. I expect great results.

Works nicely! Been using it for over 3 years and it does a great job cleaning the fret board. Today I discovered an additional use for it, which prompted this review. One of my bass guitars is finished in a dark tobacco coloring. Well, right at the top on the front, directly above the pick guard (where you can't help but notice it) I somehow scratched it, and left a few very noticeable white scratches. So I was changing the strings and cleaning the fret board and on a whim I sprayed the Guitar Honey directly onto the scratches. And they disappeared! Now, of course the scratches themselves are still there, but the Guitar Honey stained them enough that they blend into the rest of the guitar. Check out the photos! It took me quite a bit of angling before I was able to get the light to reflect from the scratches well enough to photograph. I don't have a before photo, because like I said, it was a spur of the moment decision to spray it on the scratches. Now, I will caveat this with saying 1) my guitar was very dark colored already, and 2) I was so disgusted with how it looked that I didn't care what happened - I figured it couldn't get any worse. I don't know what will happen with a lighter colored guitar. Proceed with caution. Very happy with the outcome.

Gerlitz "Guitar Honey" - I've found that rarely do rave reviews live up to expectations - this product is the exception. I recently bought a new electric guitar with rosewood fret board which appeared dry and left black marks on my fingers after I played it (probably marker pen left from when the frets wear dressed during manufacture set up). Removed the strings, gave the fret board a quick light spray with Guitar Honey, a buff with dry cloth and there we are a beautiful fret board that looks better and feels better too. Incidentally, the seller of this product and the laudable causes he supports (which a percentage of the proceeds of the sale of this product go to) is worth supporting as part of the purchase of this brilliant product - making music can also be about doing some good. Recommended. Note: Only suitable for natural woods and not lacquered fret boards.

Does a nice job of conditioning my rosewood finger boards. It only takes a small amount to bring out the deep rich color of the wood. It is expensive but it will last a long time even with regular use.

A little of this wonder stuff goes a long way, I have just received this product and treated 4 guitars with it, they have that 'showroom' fretboard look now, whether Rosewood or Ebony fretboard, this conditioner really works. Don't be put off by 2fl oz bottle, this should according to my useage so far do 120 fretboards worth depending on how much you put on. I highly recommend this product!

I had a bass with a very dry fretboard. Two applications of this and its like I've got a new fretboard. This stuff really works wonders I can't reccomend this highly enough. Brilliant,

Sprayd and left it soak over night without wiping it off, then repeated untill it got saturated enough not to change color when a new coat is applied. The great result is in my pictures.
