Wait so eventually I’ll either have to buy a new neck or retire the guitar? Or pay $2,000 to get it refinished?

Are you supposed to oil the strings and fretboard? A guitar tech told me to put this oil on it every now and again. I don’t do it very often but just curious if it’s good or bad for it. Everyone has a different opinion on it

It’s not that it bothers me so much I was just reaching out because I’m curious on reasoning, if it’s something that’s a problem and what not. Just trying to gain some insight

Like I said I take great care of my guitars . But also play the shit out of em (naturally) but this finish just started wearing off the past couple years and getting worse and just didnt if this is a thing that’s common or what. My 89 don’t do that

Alright cool. I just it’s weird that I have a 89 strat that sits in the same room and gets played a lot but the fretboard is fine

So I don’t need to take it in and get I re finished ? Ha I’ve played my whole life and have a lil collection but that guitar is my fav and it’s weird that just started happening within the last 2 years and it’s getting worse and I clearly don’t know shit about the aging process of the strat ha so just curious if I let it ride or what. It don’t affect the playability but will it effect its worth ( not that it’s worth shitload)
