Caring for my bass

It's not likely that I could get it to you for a full refinish. I'm in Canada, and with that rosewood fretboard, crossing the border is an issue

Would that Lemon Oil be a good thing to rub on the back of the neck? Also what about the rest of the body? Is there something in particular that I can use to clean it up?

I also asked about wiping it down after playing, and what you'd recommend as far as a cloth... would J-Cloth be OK for that or should I have a small cotton towel or something?

Thanks.

What Rosewood Fretboard? Show me the FINGERBOARD, and I will ID the wood for you. Rosewood is is NOT!

Also, cleaners do NOT replace worn away finish. They can only make things worse.
