Four zero steel wool. Cover the pickups with masking tape. No need to remove the neck. Wipe off the board after the steel wool. Hit it with some oil let it set. Wipe off or add more as needed. VERY simple.
Fantastic and VERY STUNNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If that grime is not too bad for sure. This method gets pretty much the most disgusting fretboard clean!

Lol... yep, cloth and ur pretty much done with maple and steel. Most frets/fretboards aren't like that tho so yeah... is what it it is. It's worth it in the end for a nice playing result. Keep rockin' 🤘🎸
Why remove a neck 😮

No risk of damaging the body with sand papers or nickel filings gettings into the pickups and causing a short.

@@appetiteforguitar No need to completely remove the neck, you can just cover the body to protect it. Good point in protecting the pickups though. Frets look fab when finished ! i used to own a Pacifica just like yours, Great guitars. Nice video mate! Very well done! Cheers :)
