Our take on the Dunlop System 65 Guitar Fingerboard Kit

The Dunlop System 65 Fingerboard Kit is a three-piece care set for rosewood, ebony and other unfinished wood fretboards: a cleaner and prep spray, a deep conditioner oil, and a cotton polishing cloth. The two-step routine lifts grime and old residue first, then feeds the wood with natural oils to keep it from drying and cracking. It suits players doing their own setups and string changes, and it is simpler and more targeted than general guitar polish, which is meant for finished bodies rather than bare wood. Reviewers rate it highly and call it a reliable, easy routine, though some find the oil slow to absorb and easy to over-apply.

Questions and answers

Is this safe for maple fretboards?
No. The oil is for unfinished woods like rosewood and ebony. Maple boards usually have a lacquer finish, and the oil can soften or stain it.
How often should I use it?
Clean and condition when you change strings or when the board looks dry and dull, roughly every few string changes. Over-oiling is worse than skipping a session.
Do I need to remove the strings?
You can work around the strings, but the job is easier and cleaner with them off. Loosen or remove them so you can reach the full board and frets.
What is in the box?
A cleaner and prep bottle, a deep conditioner oil, and a cotton polishing cloth. That covers cleaning, conditioning and wipe-off.
How is it different from guitar polish?
Guitar polish is for finished bodies and necks. This kit is made for bare wood fretboards, cleaning out grime and feeding the wood with oil.
Will it darken my fretboard?
It can make dry wood look richer and darker by restoring moisture. It does not dye the wood, so the change is subtle and fades as the board dries again.
