Anybody use the Ernie Ball Wonder Wipe String Cleaners on their Fiore? Want to make sure I do not damage maple neck. I am a big fan of wiping down strings, and even do it on set breaks when hands have been sweaty. Besides tone I notice a big difference in tactile feel with clean strings. Now I have a Fiore which I love and want to be careful.

I just wipe the strings/neck with a rag after I’m finished playing. Not a fan of string topicals.

I use Connoisseur's Silver Jewelry Cloth. White side to clean, pink side to polish. I wipe the strings down every time I'm done playing and also do each individual string when brand new prior to string changes. Keeps them lasting a long time. Someone on this forum posted about this years ago (don't remember who) but I tried it and loved it.

Bodia talked to me while I was in the penalty box a couple weeks ago and told me to come back because "my knowledge" was good for the group.And you believed him?
Yes, we laughed for two days after that one!

That hit my funny bone and made me laugh. I think I’m tired.

Thought it was you, but I wasn't sure. And, thanks much for sharing the cloth's magic properties. As long as you wipe the new strings down before you string 'em up, then wipe them down after playing they last a long long time. Longer than the Elixers did when I used them.
What'd you do - say FU@K?

Yes, it's kind of shocking how long some of them last! People don't believe it until they try it.

I wonder how a silicone cloth used for wiping down firearms would work on the strings. I have a few of those around here. I don't have any issues with my strings not lasting though. I get quite a long life out of them.

That's all? I thought maybe it was something serious, like saying the MN Vikings are cheaters. We fans know that's not true - we just lose. And we do it the old-fashioned way: we suck!Worse. I said Michigan cheated.

Yep, that's all it takes to get smacked down around here. And I've always pulled for the Vikings since my boy Chris Carter went there years ago.That's all?

Ah yes, those were the days - Chris Carter, Randy Moss, Randall Cunningham back in '98. We didn't suck that year, almost made it to SB.

The only times I have watched the Vikings play is when they were playing the Packers or when Brett was playing for them.
