    Hi Novice,
    if you want to keep the colour of the fingerboard light I'd order some Dingotone Guitar wax won't darken the look.
    If you don't mind it being a bit darker I rag tung oil onto fingerboards
    Current Builds and status
    scratch end grain pine tele - first clear coat on !
    JBA-4 - assembled - final tweaks
    Telemonster double scale tele - finish tobacco burst on body and sand neck

    Completed builds
    scratch oak.rose gum Jazzmaster - assembled needs setup
    MK-2 Mosrite - assembled - play in
    Ash tele with Baritone neck - neck pup wiring tweaks and play in

    Thanks for the tips workaboy and Brendan.
    My concerns with putting wax or oil on the fretboard was in case either would coat the strings on in fact allow dirt to accumulate easier
    Will give the dingotone wax a go.
    Cheers
    The Novice
