Many years ago, a very good player explained to me that removing dead skin, oil, and sundry crud from the fretboard is bad luck. So I don't.
Haven't had a problem yet! |

I went to their website, then contact, and sent an email asking how to buy it. They were quick to reply with all necessary info.

It’s by far the best product I’ve ever used on my FBs and bridges, one treatment has lasted two years and my guitars are showing no sign of needing more. I believe you have to order it direct from Tim McKnight Guitars…
https://mcknightguitars.com/contact-us/ Or I guess you could PM Tim direct via the forum Messaging service

Not knocking any other suggestions here (part from lemon oil - eugh) but for many years now, I've cleaned and polished my guitars at every string change, with this stuff :
Most guitars get this treatment every three/four months ... but now I'm using XS strings ... ? maybe every 5-6 ... years ?

Very quick response. I received mine in two days. YMMV

I was going to ask the same thing, show me your data and proof, why are you correct, and every luthier and guitar repair person I know says differently?

I also use the McKnight product and find that it works great. I used it on my neglected 45 year old Yamaha that was dried out and pathetic and it made it look brand new!

The problem with quoting experts is that there are a lot of experts out there to support pretty much anything you want them to support.

If you want to tell me I need to oil my fret boards, when I've owned dozens of guitars over the years that went untreated and none suffered, then you are the one that needs to show some "data and proof" that I did some harm that somehow never manifested. If it's needed then certainly all makers who offer a lifetime warranty must require it, right? Last edited by Bowie; 05-03-2024 at 03:05 PM. |

I have to agree with the positive reviews on McKnight's fretboard revival. I've been using it with every string change (typically 2-3 times a year), for about three years. It's a fantastic product -- easy to use, long-lasting, no weird smell or residue, and makes the bridge and fretboard look fantastic. Highly recommended.

Yes, you probably should have a direct link on your website. I would have already ordered it! |
