        Oh for the days of the Lemon Oil thread
        I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood

                Lemon Oil as well. As for trying other conditioners, I really haven't. I guess my attitude is, if it ain't broke don't fix it.

                        I use some mineral oil for Ebony and Rosewood.

                        You can get a giant bottle at the drug store for about $8 in the laxative section, or you can pay $20 for an ounce of the same shit from the music store.

                          I've seen videos on some shady sites where they used baby oil on wood and it worked really well! :P

                            baby oil is pretty much mineral oil, and i picked up some mineral oil from rite aid and it worked wonderfully
                            i also ordered some gibson fretboard conditioner

                              That was a different type of "wood" :p
