The band that I perform with was recently at the Country Stampede in Manhattan, Kansas. During sound check I noticed that the Lakland didn't have the sound that I am use to, I knew the problem was the dreaded "dead string" disorder. I had recently purchased a box of the DeoxIt Axe Wipes and decided it was the time to give them a go. I was surely hoping that they would "raise the dead" since I didn't have time to change the strings out. I went backstage and gave the strings a good old fashioned scrubbing with the Axe Wipes and hoped for the best. We went onstage, hit the first note and you couldn't wipe the smile off my face. The strings had that just broken in sound, bright with plenty of overtones. I was overjoyed. I will be telling everyone I know about the wonders of the Axe wipes.
Thanks for a great product!
