Hello all,
I just recently got my very first Martin (Dreadnought Jr), and as this is the first solid wood, bigger brand instrument I've ever purchased in my life, I would like to care for it properly as my previous acoustics were just laminate bodies. May I ask what needs to be done to upkeep this guitar?
Fretboard oil during string changes, just a simple microfibre cloth for wipe downs every once in awhile would be enough? Hoping the more experienced acoustic guitar fans can educate me
PS: I have a few years old Dr Ducks Ax Wax that I used to use on my older guitar fretboards, but it's been years since I did that, so Im assuming I should get something new for the fretboard instead?
Thank you in advance
