The thing about adjusting the truss-rod is that many many people will advise to adjust w/o checking the neck-relief first. 'just give it a 1/4 turn' No, check the neck relief!

both genres:

I'm not, it's a discussion. You trolled, I bit, let's move on. You folks have a knack for pretending to be polite with an insidious intent.

It gets in there, the means doesn't really matter. Being dismissive of something trivial is my thing 😀

I have a story about how Petroleum based Vaseline breaks down rubber & caused many unwanted pregnancies, but that's basically the story. People forget that stuff is made from crude oil.

I thought WD-40 started as fish oil or peanut oil, but now it's a Petroleum based oil, which is just plain bad for wood. You wouldn't rub Vaseline on there, would you? I'm sure if someone explained this to the mechanic, it wouldn't matter, much like it hasn't mattered for some naysayers in this thread, LOL! BTW the WD in WD-40 = Water Displacement since water & oil won't mix which is just supporting my ongoing assertion that oil doesn't moisturize

It gets in there, end of.

You also can't stop the oil from leeching down into the fret-slots. good times! 😀

I just realized that's a guitar:

Take off the electronics & just dunk the whole instrument in there, leave it for a month, & then you'll never have to oil it again.

Fast-Fret caused that discoloration?

You should report that to JLP 😀 He loves oil, I don't.

Victor Wooten others take inspiration from him, but he was born into it, his family to support him & push him He was performing at a young age. People think Sheehan is 'Flash', but I say Wooten is moreso & w/o being Musical.

This one has gone so well that my next thread will be about how you're all enjoying Music incorrectly since 13-Feb-70 (Friday the 13th) 🤣 Mineral oil has a 7 pH, which is neutral, so it would do nothing for tenderizing meat, but the lemon fragrance would probably taste awful. FWIW, the pH of Vinegar = 2.5 (0 = extremely acidic) pH of lemon juice = 2

I promise, this will be the last time: What we don't need is folks sharing their harmful marinade recipes 😀 OK, I'm over that now.

I used to have discussions with the local luthier during his slow hours & once I asked him what to polish my Rickenbacker with, as it was a lacquer finish. He was adamant NOT to use anything except a clean microfibre cloth. He told me the biggest problem with fixing dings in the finishes was the fact that the owners had used waxes & other polishes on the surface.

Ha-Ha, here's me focusing on the positive again, thanks! Try telling a player they don't need a gigantuan Orange Drop Capacitor & you'll get the haughty look of derision. 😀

I'm hoping we can close the page on this, people are gonna do what they're gonna do, even I have changed how or what I do. I thought I'd bring this up, because I learned in that thread that the cream is just 'fluffed' oil, although there is also WATER in there. Anyway, I stopped using it immediately. I learned from it, which is why I can't wrap my head around when I explain to someone a fact that would make me stop using something immediately.

Have a good week, but I'm begging you, please don't suggest for other people to use your marinade recipe.

You mean the person who came in here to troll me with a far reach for 'contradiction' & then made me out to be the bad guy. Yeah, that's what you've done. Nice one with the recipe, I'll use it for my next jerky batch 😀 I haven't consumed alcohol in years, I'm just overly obsessive-compulsive. Contrarians are everywhere, but even facts won't help when they're doing it for the sake of it.

It's hardly pontificating to state that fact that you don't need to oil the fretboards. Pontificating on the other hand would be insisting you're gonna !@#$%^& do it anyway. with a weird recipe for marinating 😀

vinegar & lemon juice are acidic, it's a fact which you can't seem to understand, since you're using it to 'condition'

Jokes on you, I'm about to post a video of Jim Dunlop smashing up snakes in a mortar & pestle to make that oil 😀 OTOH you could start your own thread about how much you love oil:

Let's sum this up, you were on the losing end of a discussion in my thread, thanks to FACTs. So you started your own thread to mock me, Adios!

Use naptha to clean, then wipe it with a clean damp cloth, job done.
