    Hi Stratto, I prefer not to put any clear over the fingerboard. Order some Dingowax or get some orange oil or Dr Ducks axe wax.
    Tru oil will wear off pretty quickly the more the axe is played

    Can you use Lemon Oil as opposed to Orange Oil.....they are both citrus after all.....and i use lemon oil on rosewood fretboards i have.
