    Tired of Waxing My Thumb: I want to refinish it.

    I have a 2001 LTD Thumb BO w/ Bubinga top and am tired of waxing it. I like the wet look of it right after I wax it, but I have neither time nor energy for waxing it frequently any more. So, I'm thinking of the following two options. 1. Apply glossy poly. 2. Stain it to get a maple or...

    Waxing my Corvette Taranis

    Hi I recently bought a Corvette Taranis 5 string (black). It didn't come with bees wax (not sure why...). Should I be waxing this guitar? Which parts should I wax? Where can I get wax from? Thanks Adrian

    Waxing question?

    So, after I wax my basses and return to them the next day, my hands seem to pick up a tiny layer of wax from handling the bass, then my fingers start to grip to everything on the bass, and it feels real gross. My hands, unfortunately, sweat a lot when I play, I know this doesn't help. Is...

    Got my first Warwick, 2003 Thumb 5 NT, a couple of weeks ago. First waxing was sans strings, cos the first owner had it strung for high C :roll: (some people, eh? :lol: :lol: :lol:). So anyway, now that there's strings on it, and I'm looking at another waxing... I'm wondering if it's...

    Waxing Question

    Waxing up my new bass, and I was wondering, do I need to wax the fretboard? It's a fretted instrument, if that makes a difference.

    Got my $$ + waxing question

    Well today I went and picked up my first Warwick bass, a brand new Corvette $$ 4 String in natural oil finish. Beautiful. Initially found the electronics and variety in tones daunting but soon enough found "that" tone. I obviously want to maintain my new Vette well, so I'll have to be waxing...

    Waxing coloured oil finishes

    I've read that you shouldn't wax the coloured oil finishes, I'm wondering, what does waxing do to it? Last night I decided to wax the neck of the Streamer STD, the cloth came away black from dirt, but a couple of coats of wax really brought the neck to life. That made me look at the body, it...

    1 week? 2 weeks? more...? I'm imagining that drying the oil takes more than 1 or 2 days... After cleaning up the hardware and fretboard and installing a JAN1 and new electornics, I'm debating refinishing my SS2 after doing some searches and seeing so many great results of people refinishing...
