ColorTone Fretboard Finishing Oil

I used this on some guitars that were getting some discoloration within the grain and also the fretboard was only a nice solid dark color when it was just setup and had lemon oil on it fresh, but wore off after about a week. This product went on easy and my fretboard looks like its new and healthy. Just make sure you clean it well afterwards because it leaves a slight tacky feeling and it somehow got the back of the neck sticky, but it cleans right off.

This is perfect for any dark-colored wood! It adds a nice deeper-color and restores dried-out wood to like-new condition.

I was a little doubtful if the product was worth the money or just how good it might be. I have to say, I have eight guitars and I am quite happy with just how nice the boards now look and feel after using it. I would highly recommend the product. Used it also on my Epiphone SG with the faded wood finish, guitar looked awesome.

This product has solids in it, and thus leaves a hard seal over the surface of the fretboard. If this is what you are after, then this is a great product. Personally, I like to leave my fretboards unsealed to allow them to breath. I prefer a bore oil based product that doesn't contain solids.

All in all this is a great product if a sealed oil finish is what you are after.

it brings that "like new" look back to old fret boards

I like what I hear and see about this product! Makes fretboard look great!

works well, it feels thin and dries fast.

I've been using this stuff for years, and friends, colleagues and customers are are in agreement that it's fantastic stuff. It leaves your fretboard looking, feeling and smelling fantastic. It helps keep the wood clean, since it prevents dirt and grime from sticking to the grain. It also helps prevent the wood from over-drying and cracking, (remember to humidify your guitars properly!)

Customers also love how it brings out the grain of the wood, and darkens rosewood and ebony without staining it or covering up the natural color.

I highly recommend it, and also suggest that you treat your acoustic bridges with it. Your guitar will thank you!

This is the "before". Please view the"after" treatment in another review.

This review is to add pictures of a Fender Jazz bass fretboard, before and after. This is good stuff. See for yourself! This is the "after".
