Revives dark wood fingerboards on guitars and string instruments
When a fingerboard dries out, playing comfort decreases and the instrument can become fragile over time. D'Addario Hydrate is a treatment designed for the regular maintenance of natural dark wood fingerboards (such as rosewood and similar species) on most string instruments. It helps restore the wood's appearance, improves the feel under the fingers, and maintains a clean, pleasant, and consistent fingerboard.
