    What is the best way to clean the vintage black type of finish? Also what should be used to clean the fretboard. Until this gutiar I have only had rosewood fretboards. Any information would do. One last question I used to rest my middle, ring, and pinky finger on the body of the guitar when playing, and it has made the finish in that area a bit "glossy" looking. Can anything remedy that or did I fix the bad habit too late?

    For maple fretboards use lemon oil, rosewood use orange oil.
    I would just suggest buying the Dunlop 65 Cleaning kit, comes with body polish/cleaner, wax, fretboard cleaner, fretboard conditioner and string cleaner/conditioner.

      It has an ebony fretboard. Sorry I didn't put that to start with

        According to Dunlop, you should NOT use lemon oil for maple fingerboards.

          lemon oil works pretty well on ebony

          can't help you with your satin finish question though
