[And do I actually have to learn how to Play a Guitar?] Not sure exactly. Mark has plans to take over his daughter's house up at the UP -- in July?
And -- yes, but you don't have to play it :)

And LOOK! No Snot Blob! :p
And I'm not sure... But I think the stick-on epaulets are thicker than the top material.
Like others have said, It's like a drum-head! |

Location: Keepin' It Weird in Portland, OR | Back to seeking an Edjumakation... :confused:
What is that fretboard made outta? Walnut?
Any care and feeding tips of that kind of fretboard that anyone can recommend?
What should I use, or more importantly what Shouldn't I use to clean the top?
[It has sludge or maybe human-oil around the bridge and where people rest their pinky]
Should I toss a Herco humidifier can into the case, at least for the fretboard?
Any other pointers? |

Location: Sydney, Australia | It's resin impregnated walnut, which I guess means they've filled it up with some liquid gunk that goes nice and hard. Otherwise you'd wear through the fretboard in a year or so. I just use mineral oil.
The top is tough as nails, it's just a matter of staying away from harsh abrasives or something that will leave a residue. Mildly damp cloth seems to be the favourite, a Mr Big t-shirt for the ultimate in cool.
Adamas will be more resistant to humidity variation, but it's good to keep it in the right range. Where I live never gets too dry so it's not a worry. |

It's not a 'Reverse Blue Burst' but... Did I do good?
