I have to admit I raised the ball and allowed Sinisa to kick as strong as possible

'Mate, don't clean the guitar's fretboard! That dirt is a part of your sound!' Let me guess, he likes grunge I keep my hands clean, so my fretboards remain mostly clean too I always wipe the strings with a cloth after playing. That's all. Oh, and on my SG I try to remember to use an ernie ball wonder wipe once a year, but only to avoid the rosewood getting too dry. Which, by the way, I didn't do this year -------------------- Guitars:

I clean my guitar frets every time I put new strings on.
I use old plastic (credit)card and an old toothbrush for wiping the crap out. |

There's not getting away from the fact that it's finger poo.....
I probably clean the frets about once or twice a year I know, it's bad...... |

My guitar gets dirty so quick...I guess it's because I have such sweaty hands. Usually the guy who sets my guitar cleans them and he does a really good job. Around every 6 months or so

I don't do it very often. It's rare for me to strip the strings and clean it in full...
I did find out one trick how to clean my bass strings and keep the fresh - GHS Fast Fret 1. Just wipe it on (and don't wipe the excess off like it says in the manual) 2. Leave it over night 3. Tomorrow enjoy the new strings sound again -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

I kinda dislike the 'greasy' feeling left after using the fastfret Yeah - me too. But I kinda got used to it. Also, it's barely noticeable the day after. I never play right after application rather let it "dry" -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net
