Q: I have one of the Gibsons with the torrified maple fingerboards. Do I need to do anything special to care for it?
A: A gentle cleaning when you change strings and a little bit of conditioning now and then should keep your new guitar’s fingerboard happy and healthy. Gibson recommends the Gibson Luthier’s Choice fretboard conditioner, which can be found in Gibson’s AILC Luthier’s Choice Triple Pack guitar maintenance kit. You can also use lemon oil on Gibson fingerboards, through there may be some artificial lemon scent and some brands do contain artificial dyes or colorings.
