ProlineLemon Oil Fretboard Conditioner
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Budget lemon-oil conditioner for unfinished fretboards. For players cleaning grime and rehydrating dry rosewood or ebony at string changes.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Restringing day cleanup on rosewood or ebony boards
- Dry-climate guitars where the board looks pale and chalky
- Keeping a gigging guitar's board maintained between setups
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Maple fretboards with gloss or satin finish — oil won't penetrate
- Players wanting a body polish; this is fretboard-only
- Anyone oiling monthly — overuse softens the wood
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Fretboard conditioner, not a polish
Meant for bare wood only. Keep it off finished necks, bodies and pickup covers.
Detail 03
Wipe-on, wipe-off product
Needs a cloth and a few minutes of dwell time. Excess must be removed or it stays tacky.
Detail 04
$10.99 price
Cheap enough to keep in the case; a bottle typically outlasts several years of string changes.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01No cloth included — use a lint-free rag, not paper towel
- 02Only do this with strings off or loosened for full access
- 03A little goes far; flooding the board does nothing extra
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I use this on a maple fretboard?
Not on finished maple. The finish blocks absorption and the oil just sits on top. Use it on bare rosewood, ebony or pau ferro.
02How often should I oil my fretboard?
Once or twice a year for most players, or whenever the wood looks dry and light. Tie it to a string change so the board is exposed.
03Will it damage my frets or inlays?
No. Wipe the excess off the fret tops so nothing stays sticky under the strings.
04Does it clean gunk off too?
It loosens finger grime and lets you wipe it away. Heavy buildup near the frets may still need gentle scraping first.
