Very useful and long-living kit
Anonymous 31.01.2015
I am using this Guitar Care Kit by d'Andrea since almost five years and it still is far from being empty. I have several guitars on which it is used on a regular basis (at least 4 times a year per guitar).
The three items provided are a bottle of lemon oil, which is the most useful of the items as it is the main caring tool for unfinished wood surfaces (e.g. rosewood fretboards). It keeps them moist, which does not just make them look better (richer wood colour) but also improves playability (the fretboard feels so much slicker after having used the oil on it).
Second, there is the string cleaner, which I don't use that often as most of my guitars are fitted with nano-strings which aren't that prone to corrosion. But on normal strings it does a pretty solid job of freeing them from dirt and rust. You just ought to be careful on spilling it on the fretboard as it is said to be rather aggressive towards wood (never had that experience).
Finally, the polish can be used on finished wood parts in order to make them shiny and clean them from dirt. A polishing cloth is also provided.

Nifty kit, but a few product flaws
nikreiman 19.01.2022
This is a pretty handy all-in-one kit, but the product itself isn't great. As others noted, the bottle for the lemon fretboard oil is defective and doesn't really keep a tight seal. Fortunately, I was able to transfer the liquid to another spare from a travel shampoo bottle. Also, the cleaning cloth is great for guitar bodies but not fretboards. The fret edges will cause the cloth to fray a bit, which leaves small bits of fabric on the fretboard and the cloth with a visible "torn" look in the area used to polish the fretboard. I use the cloth just for body polish, and something else for the fretboard though.

Every Guitarist Should Have These
Drop D 19.10.2021
This care kit really is worth it. I have a number of guitars and this kit has lasted ages, I still have plenty of Cleaner, Polish and Oil left. A little drop of this stuff goes a long way.

The fingerboard oil is top notch, smells good and has kept all of my guitars in great shape. I use it every month to a month and a half. It really does keep the fretboard in great condition.

Same goes for the polish and string cleaner. The fretboard oil is also great for my natural finish, open pore rare woods Ibanez, so its very useful for the body and neck of the guitar, not just the frets.

Awesome product and a good price too.

what does what??
confused beginner 18.12.2021
ordered this kit, the description under tells me there is a

Guitar polish
Fingerboard care (lemon oil)
String cleaner
Polishing cloth

the cloth I can kinda guess, but what are the rest, the text on the bottles are in german, there is no manual with the kit, there is no description of what does what, as a new beginner I have little to no idea what does what, I just know it's a good idea to take care of your instrument, but even if you can read German there are NO description of what the different bottles do,

the Fingerboard care (lemon oil) is called (I'm guessing here) zitronenölreininger with translates to something like lemon cleaning oil, so is it a "care" or a "cleaning" oil?? do I "clean "my and again I'm guessing here fretboard with this or is it an after"care" to protect the neck?? and the 2 other bottles is the same,

I won't risk damaging for me expensive bass, I'm throwing this out, and my advice, if you are not sure EXACTLY what to do, go get something accompanied with an explanation in your local instrument dealer

clearly better
Beachopper 17.04.2018
I found this polish to be one of the better ones I've tried - less inclined to leave a 'bloom' or swirl marks, and no streaks. Cloth is a good heavyweight, and having owned it for a year I can say it machine washes well ( dont use conditioner!). I don't know enough about lemon oils or string cleaner enough to compare over other brands - but these do a good job. As always Thomann value shines through.

Good product, even if I don't understand German.
Niyo 04.01.2022
Really good product, it does exactly what it says in the bottle, even if it's in German, a language that I don't understand, but Google do, so if you can read this review you can also Google it and find out what bottle is what and what they're for.
I recommend.

Good kit for the money
Callum Hitchen 26.11.2020
Has everything you need to get your axe looking all pretty, the only reason I never gave 5 stars is that the lemon oil I received has a dodgy lid that doesn't go on properly so if I knock it over it would go everywhere, but that could be a one-off, apart from that can't complain, great value for money

Very nice and affordable guitar care kit
Zeka 24.03.2020
I'm very happy with these cleaning and guitar care products.
Never used the "lemon oil" before, but the fingerboard on my guitar looks and feels much better after a good cleaning with this stuff. Rosewood looks rejuvenated and darker color.

I don't use string cleaner after every playing session, but perhaps I should. Just have to be careful with it, since it should not come in contact with guitar finish.

Polish will probably last forever since I polish my guitar maybe twice a year. It looks very nice after polishing, but does nothing for the tone :)
If your guitar is a wall ornament, this might come handy. For me, not so much.

A1 value for money cleaning kit.
kkorky 20.06.2019
There is not much one can say about a cleaning kit really, but i'll do my best.

It is comprised of 4 items:

Guitar cleaner
Lemon oil
Guitar polish
Cloth

I had just completed a full setup on one of my strats & so i used the kit fully-it did the job it was bought for & even the cloth was of a decent quality (how many times are we given crappy substandard cloths in cleaning kits? Rhetorical Q ofc).

The price was great for what we get & this kit should last for a very long time.

Friendly advice: Look up how & when to use lemon oil, too many new guitar players have used it incorrectly when they shouldn't have & in turn damaged the finish of their guitars ;)

I would buy the kit again when my current one runs out.
