I've had guitars for I donno, 20 years now. Only this week did I first ever oil one of the fretboard. Learned you should be doing it +/- every 6 months haha. I don't know about that. But it does bring out the color kinda nice.

I also feel like it feels better. But I think it's placebo. Because I. Not really touching the fretboard, I'm touching the strings. But it did have a nice smell to it. Which made me want to pick it up a bit more often.
