Amazing...
This stuff is amazing.. I admit I had a suspicion it was all hype.. another snake oil... tut!Nope, it is great, and it never seems to run out?!.. It's magical! ...I keep expecting a genie to pop out out!If your wish is a perfect oil for a fretboard.. or just to clean your whole guitar.. or other wood items ..THIS IS IT! ... When i saw on the Martin Guitars website they approve this oil.. I knew i was in safe hands.*I am not a bot, I am connected to this company, I am not connected to Amazon. It deserves good reviews.Now make it cheaper! x

Natural Alternative
Was looking for guitar string lube without a "danger if swallowed" warning on it. This is it.Glad I found it as I don't have to worry about this liquid absorbing into my bloodstream after playing guitar. I know this sounds melodramatic but that's just the way I think.When my guitar strings are a bit dirty I just rub some of this into them and my fingers slide across the strings with ease.

Stressful, but worth a try!
It took several days and alot of stress before i finaly decided to give Dr Ducks a try. The packaging looks old, the website looks ancient but with so many positive reviews i finally gave in. I bought it.Firstly it was delivered the next day, so much quicker than stated, so thats a good start.The product itself is really good. As the other reviews say you dont need much, spread it around and buff like crazy. Leaves a lovely deep shine on the finish and hardware. Only done a strings on clean so far but everything is looking good.So for anyone who is unsure, and i was, i feel Dr Ducks is worth a try. I am enjoying it so far.

Snake Oil!
They used to sell this stuff in a UK guitar shop I worked in - since then I haven't used anything else. Just a drop will clean and protect an entire instrument, clean and lubricate strings, and feed a bare wood (rosewood) fingerboard. It's the only cleaner that doesn't get bits everywhere, all over your prized axe, depending on which cloth you use, obviously. Use it one tiny drop at a time as a little goes a very long way indeed.Two points: take care to clean it all off, especially on your strings and fingerboard. Clean, lubricated strings are a joy to play; slippery, gooey strings are not. Secondly, keep it in a plastic bag if you can (I use one of those resealable freezer bags) as the lid sometimes pops open. It makes a mess in your case, and you'll have no Ax Wax left!Aside from this, it remains the best product on the market that I've used in 30+ years of playing (and no, I don't work for them...)

DR DUCK'S AX WAX & STRING LUBE.
Although it took longer to arrive than the given date by Amazon, I must say that it is a superb product and does the job very well. I have used it on my Gibson Les Paul my Fenders and a few quality ukeleles I have and I can certainly say that this is one of if not the best guitar cleaner I have AND as a bonus can be used on ALL parts of the instrument. I did notice though that it did dry the skin out on my hands? Obviously something to bear in mind in the future when I will wear thin rubber gloves the next time I use it. To be fair 1to1 the supplier who I learned are in Ireland did email me an apology for the time it took to arrive so 5 stars to them also for their customer service.

Good product but...
The actual oil/wax is very good and does a good job on all parts of the guitar. But be careful with the stopper it's easy to forget to push the pourer down fully and you can lose your precious wax. A screw top over a small dispensing hole would be better.

I used to use lemon oil about once a year on the fretboard but the tiny amount of Ax Wax the fretboard inevitably gets when I change strings will probably be fine in itself
The Holy Grail! I destroy steel acoustic strings very quickly . . . Elixirs last longer but that does not address the issue of metal fatigue losing all the harmonic overtones on the unwound strings after about twenty hours or so of playing. Using an oily rag soaked in Ax Wax when gently stretching uncoated strings on installation means my strings are still loud and 'twangy' when they've reached the point where the harmonics have gone and I want to change them anyway. I've tried many solutions im my time. This works for me. Spending a pound a day on my main guitar when I'm practicing and composing all day long isn't a problem.Using the stuff on the wood is sort of OK. Use VERY little or it feels really greasy. I'd prefer a guitar polish.I used to use lemon oil about once a year on the fretboard but the tiny amount of Ax Wax the fretboard inevitably gets when I change strings will probably be fine in itself.
