An Essential Care for Dark, Unfinished Fingerboards
Hydrate by D'Addario is a fingerboard conditioner designed to revitalize the dark, unfinished woods of your stringed instruments. Its specific formula combines oils and cleaning agents to remove embedded impurities while restoring the wood's natural moisture. The result: a visibly cleaner fingerboard, a more consistent touch, and improved glide for bends, vibratos, and position shifts.
Protection, Comfort, and Longevity for Everyday Use
When a fingerboard dries out, it can lose comfort and become more fragile. By incorporating Hydrate into your maintenance routine, you help reduce the risk of cracks and other damage caused by lack of moisture while preserving the wood's character. Ideal for demanding guitarists and bassists, this treatment provides a supple, silky finish that makes playing more enjoyable without altering the identity of an unfinished fingerboard. For use only on dark, unfinished woods.
