Excellent product to enhance the look and feel of fingerboards!

I'd been using Old English Lemon Oil for years and it worked fine. I wanted to try something different with a couple of new guitars that I'd recently bought, so I order this.

Most guitars these days come with pretty dry fingerboards and some have new variations in the type of wood. The F-One Fretboard Oil leaves less residue and works great so far.

I've used it on fresh Indian Rosewood and Jatoba fingerboards and it takes very little to bring out the beauty of the wood better and gives it a traditional well-loved look. Feels better to the touch too!

Fantastic stuff

I’ve used several different types of fretboard conditioner over the years and even made my own concoctions but this stuff is the best. Ebony and rosewood love this stuff. I’ve used it on a $3,000 Zerberus Hydra, $3,000 Ormsby and several other high end guitars and it makes the wood come alive! Very clean feel without gunking up on frets and almost seems to keep strings clean as well. I literally soaked an old Takamine acoustic that was so dry the fretboard was cracked and it made the cracks disappear after an hour of soaking and a good clean up. Absolutely love this stuffRead full review

I was impressed!

I wasn't sure how well this stuff would work and I was pretty impressed by it. I have an old RG270 that's about 20 years old now and while I was restringing it, I used this on the fret board. It made the fretboard look a ton better. It's not really a deep cleaner, but I put it on pretty liberally and rubbed it in. I let it sit for about 5 minutes before wiping the excess off and it really just put some life back in to the look of the board.Read full review

F-One lives up to its name

Used this on my new Fender Strat with excellent results. Smells nice, used on rosewood fretboard. Since this was a newer guitar the fretboard was a bit dried out and grainy...F-One oil went on nice and makes for easier playing, and when the wood is happy, I'm happy!Read full review

Slick

Even though my guitar was new, the recent change of rosewood fretboard to other types of wood was somewhat noticeable. The different fretboard was dry feeling. This product was a great remedy

Oil Supreme

Used other oil on EBMM Axis with maple fretboard, thought had ruined with other brand oil, but a little able grease and this made new again, never lemon oil maple please.

It is the ONE

After looking at many YouTube videos, including the one where a joking Texas biker dude washes his guitar with a bucket of sudsy water, then cleans the frets with lighter fluid, setting light yo his guitar, I cautiously bought a bottle of F-One oil to clean my three guitars - a 40 year old Yamaha acoustic with a rosewood neck, a Spanish nylon string and a maple fret board Strat copy. The oil was excellent on all three, with no overpowering smells. You do have to work at removing stains: I used a toothbrush, as the oil will not do that by itself, but it does act as a lubricant and condition your guitar fret board. IRead full review

This product will make your rosewood fingerboard get the nourishment it truly needs. Any guitar maker will tell you that you need to oil your Rosewood/Ebony fret board regularly. This product is truly a great one to have. Its made with the oils to make you fret board look great and stay healthy.
It cost so little and will last for years.

Works!

Work great. My rosewood fretboard really needed it. I gave it 6 ten minute treatments. I'll have do do that every time I change strings, it's going to take time since I've neglected it. I highly recommend F-One. Read full review

So far so good.

I've always just used lemon oil for my fretboards, but now there's buzz that's not that good for them, so either just to sell another product or maybe true.... But at around $11 what's the harm in trying a new product.

It hasn't had the test of time like lemon oil has for me, but for the first use it seems to do the job. Doesn't leave it all greasy feeling like lemon oil does, so maybe we have a winner.
