September 23 Update

Finished fret dressing this afternoon. The fretboard has been cleaned and treated with Dunlop Formula 65 Fretboard Ultimate Lemon Oil. I'll let the fretboard soak up as much as it can, and then wipe off the excess. Meanwhile, tuner servicing has concluded. The Grover™ A102C tuners and bushings are clean enough to be reinstalled. However, the washers are another story. But no worries, as I've found six shiny new replacements. Now, remember the grimy Sung Il BM002 bridge? Well, it's been cleaned and lubed; but to no avail. As you can see in the pics below, much of the chrome has flaked off and rust has penetrated deep into the saddles. I'm currently looking for a suitable replacement. That's about it for now, folks. Do stay tuned for more updates.
