Peavey humbucker model owner manual Cleaning Fingerboard

Cleaning - Fingerboard

Properly caring for your fingerboard requires special attention. Over time, a fingerboard may lose its natural oils and shrink or exhibit a worn or faded appearance. Peavey recommends that you periodically apply a small amount of Lemon Oil (available at www.peavey.com/accessories) to your fingerboard (after removing strings) using a clean, soft, lint-free, dry cotton cloth, taking care to remove excess oil immedi- ately. A little goes a long way! How do you know when it is time to reapply? You can watch for a change in the appearance of your wood, or set a routine calendar date. However, do not allow too much time to pass as permanent damage may occur. If you allow the wood on the fingerboard to dry out and shrink,

the frets will “stand out” and feel rough to the touch.
