Am I mistaken calling the "Smith Classic Wax Polish", which came with my bass, your "Secret Sauce"?
If I'm using the wrong stuff, I'll check your website and procure the correct liquid and set myself, and my bass, right.
Thanks again, Kirk
Yes, read here from the website;
FINISH: Classic Hand Rubbed Dutch Varnish over Stradivari Gold Oil

Re-finish is not easy. The bass has to be completely dis-assembled, stripped, sanded, re-finished with all the steps and then re-assembled and set-up again. We do not sell out finish mixes nor do we teach how to do what we do so to do it yourself, you will just have to buy what you can find and learn how to finish a bass. It won't be exactly as we do but it can be done.
