The MusicNomad's Fretboard F-ONE Oil isan all-natural wood conditioner that breathes new life into your guitar's fretboard. Formulated with a proprietary blend of refined tree and seed oils, F-ONE Oil penetrates deep into the wood to moisturize your fretboard and restore it to its ideal moisture balance. When a fretboard dries out, it loses its ability to resonate and can deaden your guitar's tone. F-ONE Oil revives your fretboard's natural tone and sustain by rehydrating the wood at a cellular level. It leaves your fretboard looking new, feeling silky smooth, and playing effortlessly fast without any tacky residue. Guitarists everywhere trust F-ONE Oil to keep their guitars sounding and playing their best.

All-Natural Ingredients, No Lemon Oil

Unlike lemon oil fretboard conditioners that can dry out and damage wood over time, F-ONE Oil is formulated entirely from natural, wood-safe ingredients. It contains no lemon extracts, petroleum distillates, or harsh chemicals—only the finest hand-selected tree and seed oils. These premium, food-grade oils are renowned for their wood conditioning and protective properties. When applied as directed, F-ONE Oil forms an invisible barrier against environmental damage while allowing your fretboard to breathe naturally.

Fast-Acting and Long-Lasting

F-ONE Oil goes to work immediately, penetrating your fretboard within minutes to restore proper hydration and tone. And while it revives your fretboard quickly, the effects last for months. F-ONE Oil's advanced formula bonds directly with the wood at a molecular level to provide deep, long-term conditioning and protection. One application can keep a rosewood or ebony fretboard looking and playing like new for 6 months or more.

Safe for All Fretboards

F-ONE Oil is safe to use on all unfinished rosewood, ebony, and maple fretboards. Its all-natural formula won't damage lacquered or finished fretboards and is compatible with most guitar polishes and waxes. No matter what fretboard wood your guitar has, you can trust F-ONE Oil to properly care for it without risk of harm.

Premium Fretboard Care, Professional Results

F-ONE Oil delivers professional-grade fretboard conditioning in an easy-to-use formula. A few drops applied with the included applicator pad are all it takes to restore your fretboard's tone, feel, and appearance. Guitar techs, repair shops, and guitarists worldwide rely on F-ONE Oil to keep their fretboards—and their guitars—sounding and playing their best. Experience the difference premium fretboard care can make.

    I used this particular Fretboard Cleaner/Conditioner for the first time. I should've started using this a long time ago. It worked well with little effort. I ended up doing four guitars last weekend. I'll be getting more!

  • Awesome Fretboard Treatment

    Used this on a Martin D-28 MD and Larrivee L-05. Really cleans well removing any gunk buildup and is not gummy. Rotated the rag and could see the grime removed when buffing clean between the frets. Noticed after restringing and playing that the fretboard was faster and smoother with no residue. Follow the instructions and use a clean rag after removing strings for best cleaning results. Definitely the best treatment to use on acoustics having ebony and mahogany fretboard necks, IMHO.

    I've tried a couple of different things to clean and polish my fretboard and this oil seems to do the best job. My fretboard was pretty dry so I applied 3 coats (one at a time) and scraped all the excess gunk off first and my fretboard feels so smooth. It makes the guitar so much more playable and creates a little more resonance and sustain. This is probably the only oil I'll ever use to clean my fretboard from here on out.

    How well does it work around fret ends. My frets feel sharp, and another guitarist told me that after you treat the board there's no need to file down frets

    It will work with most of the common materials of fret boards. To remove the strings you loosen them at the tuning key and then you can pull them out at the bridge. Give us a call at 866-498-7882 if you have any further questions. We're more than happy to walk you through the process.

    Open Reply -
    Yes it's safe. It's all natural so there's not chemicals that you have to worry about it reacting to. Sometimes if the wood is finished there may be some discoloration, but I have yet to see a fingerboard that has had a finish on it.
