What Do You Use?

What do you use to keep your maple neck clean? I have a Drop Top on the way and want to make sure I am taking care of my investment well. Is there a certain product you use that keeps the maple neck clean and tidy?

Thanks!

Keep a soft, dry cloth handy and give it a good wipe down after playing to help keep the sweat and oil from your fingers in check.

You can use Naptha to give it a more thorough cleaning when you change strings. Easy does it as a little goes a long way.

Optionally, I also like to apply wax about once or twice a year for a faster playing neck, though Tom's necks are about the fastest I've ever laid hands on. I happen to use Turtle Wax. Again, easy does it - wipe it on with the applicator or a soft cloth, let it dry to a haze and wipe it off with another clean/soft cloth.

Enjoy your Drop Top!
