It is very important to keep your guitar clean all the time for maximum performance. Nobody wants to see dirt on their guitar because not only does it ruin the image of the guitar, but it can also change the sound. You can clean your guitar as often as you want. There are three parts of your guitar which need constant cleaning: the headstock, the fretboard and the body.
1. Get a soft cloth which will not scratch the finish of your guitar's body. There are special clothes intended for this. Also look for a nice guitar spray-on.
2. Spray a bit of polish on the guitar's body. Use your soft cloth to spread it around. The most effective way of getting rid of all the smudges is by wiping in a circular motion. This will also give your guitar a nice shine, making it look better than brand new.
3. Next up, you will need to give the fretboard a nice clean. You need to remove your guitar's strings for this so they won't get in the way of your cleaning. You will be using your wood furniture polish of lemon oil and rag for this. Begin by rubbing oil up and down the neck and fret board. After this, you can start scrubbing the grime and dirt off. You can add a bit of oil after when it's clean to keep your fret board smooth and nice.
4. The guitar's headstock is created in a similar way as the fret board. Use a rag and a bit of oil to get rid of the dirt and to give it that nice and shiny, brand new look.
5. Once everything is done, put the strings back, tune them back up and you're good to go! Happy strumming!
