care and feeding of a 339

Today I bought some supplies to keep my 339, Gibby, in good health.

1. Gibson guitar polish. Pump spray on a cotton cloth lightly and wide down the guitar. good for all metal, wood, plastic, etc. It got rid of the stickiness of the back of the neck that had been bothering me. It also made it shine real pretty!

2. Fast Fret. a solid mineral oil on a wooden stick, sort of. Rub it on the strings and frets, wipe off the excess, and zoom! Fast strings, less rust and crud on them.

That's all so far. I still need to get Roche Thomas fretboard oil, but that can wait until I put in a new set of strings.

Gibby is shiny and happy!
