I just got done semi restoring mine. Basically put a couple coats of polyurethane on it after sanding. Also put a scratch guard on and greased up the tuning knobs. Ya know what I found cleans a fret board pretty good is Nail Polish remover. It stinks a bit but really gets out the dirt and brings out the wood. Got one email from a gent in South Africa so far. Anyone else out there have a Rio Bravo? David IP: DavidW Serious Contributor Posts: 1850 From: Registered: Feb 2002 posted 12:38 FYI A luthier emailed me a while back and said NEVER use Nail polish remover. I should use lighter fluid instead. Nail polish remover will eat at the glue with it's acetone. So the next time I changed the strings I cleaned up the fret board with some lighter fluid and a old sock. Just Don't smoke around it. Good thing I quit about 7 years ago.

Funny you metioned Fetishguitars because I made a overseas pal in Scotland who has the Rio Bravo like mine that's on Fetishguitar.com He has given me a few tips about refinishing and about the Eko company which went out of business in the 80's. THey are trying to revive a new EKO company and have seen a few of the newer guitars out and they aren't too bad.
