CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Finish.

A Gibson instrument always attracts attention, whether it is on a concert stage
before thousands or on a guitar stand in a home studio. After the classic body lines of
a Gibson, the finish makes the strongest impression.
Perspiration acids, heavy fingerprinting, dust and grime from on-the-job usage are
unavoidable. However, a minute or two spent with Gibson's instrument care products
– guitar polish, fretboard conditioners, string cleaner/lubricant and polishing cloth –
will restore a finish to like-new condition.
Gibson's nitrocellulose lacquer finish not only looks great, it is also easily repairable –
by a professional. Minor scratches and dings can be fixed without completely refin-
ishing the instrument.
