Lighter colored Rosewood Fretboards
I am looking at purchasing a Gibson LP Classic. The only thing I am not too excited about is the lighter color on the Fretboard. I can live with the "aged" fret markers. (Yellowed) But I am hoping you can darken the board. I have used lemon oil conditioner on several of my guitars but they already had a darker finish.
Have any of you had experience with a lighter board. The board is not dried out, I aldready checked that.
The price is right on this one and the guy will take trades.
