Our take on the Dunlop System 65 Guitar Tech Care Kit

The Dunlop System 65 Guitar Tech Care Kit bundles three Formula 65 staples: Guitar Polish and Cleaner, Fretboard 65 Ultimate Lemon Oil and Ultraglide 65 String Cleaner and Conditioner, plus two polish cloths and a Dunlop peg winder. It covers the three routine jobs on an electric or acoustic guitar: body shine, fretboard cleaning and string life. Guitar techs and repair shops have long used the Formula 65 line, and owners call it a solid all-in-one starter set. The catch is the lemon oil: Dunlop says it is not for maple fretboards, so maple-neck owners only get partial use from the kit.

Questions and answers

Is the lemon oil safe on a maple fretboard?
No. Dunlop says Fretboard 65 Ultimate Lemon Oil is not for maple fretboards. Use it on rosewood, ebony and other unfinished dark woods.
What is in the box?
You get Formula 65 Guitar Polish and Cleaner, Fretboard 65 Ultimate Lemon Oil, Ultraglide 65 String Cleaner and Conditioner, two polish cloths and a Dunlop peg winder.
Does it work on acoustic guitars?
Yes. The polish and string conditioner suit acoustic and electric guitars, and the lemon oil works on unfinished rosewood or ebony boards.
Is it worth it over buying the products separately?
The kit bundles the three main care steps with cloths and a winder, which suits players starting a routine. Buyers who already own some of the bottles may prefer singles.
How often should I oil the fretboard?
Most players oil a rosewood or ebony board a few times a year, or when it looks dry. Over-oiling can soften wood, so use it sparingly.
Can I use the polish on a satin finish?
Dunlop markets the polish as safe for most finishes, but test a small area first on satin or oiled finishes, where shine products can leave streaks.
