Waxing

For all the Warwick/natural oil finish bass owners, how often do you wax your bass? The Warwick beeswax container recommends once a week, but that seems a little excessive to me. Does it affect tone? Or just keep it looking..."fresh"?

A master finisher once told me this :
Once a day for a week, once a week for a month, once a month for a year, once a year for life.

I don't know how true it is but it gives you an idea and I like the sentence.

New Warwick bass, wax question

Warwick Wax

Should I wax my Warwick?

Can I wax my Warwick with...

wax my warwick?

Warwick treatment: wax or polishing oil?

Just filter through all the clever 14 year olds with their 'my girlfriend waxes mine!' comments.

We recommend waxing a minimum of 2 times per year, and more frequently if you play the instrument regularly. It really depends on your use and your environment. You can find more information in our User Manual, here: http://www.warwick.de/media/manuals/...mall.pdf?cl=EN Thanks!
