Location: Florida | So, if you cant play 'cause your hands are all cut n bruised, whaddaya do?
You get out the polish and clean up your gear!
One of the nitpicks about that Adamas I just got was the neck fishish. The playable area was great, the polished area was great. The heel was great. The sides and back of the headstock looked like a cut above lumber. Totally dead and dull looking.
Enter Boston polish. Dang! (sorry Al) That plank shines now! Woohoo. Amazing night n day difference.
BTW, the Butchers Spray Polish is what Fender sold as "Fender Guitar Polish" for years. Dunno if they still do, or if they're still using Butchers. |

Location: SoCal | Well, there's Adamas and then there's Adamas. Is this guitar the older, classic Adamas, or one of the newer ones? |

Location: Florida | Pete - local Ace Hardware had it. They didn't have the white Bowling Alley Wax, and I think the light amber Boston is probably a better choice (wont show white in the grain).
Mood, its an SMT very recent manufacture |

Location: Florida | Pete, I lied. I just threw away the receipt - it was a TrueValue hardware store. I know this for sure - HomeDepot and Lowes do not have Butcher's. They have Minwax - which is a good product, I've got some here too, but not on the Ovation list. |
