I think there's a guide somewhere on this site.

If I were less lazy I might find it for you!

I'll tell you what Rob uses... Mr Sheen! He used it to clean my bass when I went to pick it up at the factory. So I bought myself a can and I clean all my graphite necked basses with it.... all two of them.... Moo would have to buy in bulk :)

You're right, the lacquer is very good on Robs basses so you can just use furniture polish.

If you have some 'dulling' or scratches, you can use T-cut which will sort things out!

Ciao Massimo and welcome!

I normally use WD-40 to clean the phenolic fingerboard (but not the neck or the body!!) I believe this is what they use at Status...

Have fun with your S2!
