This tip applies to the early G&L instruments and the G&L Rustic Series models which have nitrocellulose finishes.
Heads up for you guys that find nitro sticky--use a couple of treatments of the Virtuoso Cleaner, followed by the Virtuoso Polish. I used this technique on several of my Les Pauls and it ended the sticky neck syndrome. I apply the Cleaner, leave it on for 15-20 minutes and buff it off. Repeat, and then two coats of the Polish. I did this on my two 1960 VOS Historic Plaintops and it left a beautiful shine. My full Gloss '58 Historic had a really sticky neck when I got it, but has not had any stickiness--even in 90F weather at an outdoor festival last summer. Great stuff, and STRONGLY recommended.
