Buchanan Music, a dealer in Mesa, AZ emailed this.
I just wanted to drop you a line and tell you a small
story. A high-end customer of mine with a 52 Fender Tele Reissue bought a
guitar and noticed the case and guitar smelled like Cigar Smoke. In an effort
to it freshen it up, he sprayed Febreeze in the case and directly on the
guitar. The Febreeze left streak marks in the Nitro. The customer tried his own
Polish to no avail. The streaks were not coming out. I receive a call from my
customer and I tell him to meet me at the shop in 20 minutes. Between the MusicNomad
All in one and the Polish, we were able to remove any streaks in the guitar
left from the Febreeze. It worked when the others couldn't.

I am the proud owner of a Gibson ES-175 Semi-Acoustic. I
bought not long ago the cleaning set from another brand. When using the other
brand product, it left a film on my ES-175 and all the rubbing and polishing in
the world would not take away that film or fog on the otherwise almost
mirror-like surface of that guitar. Today, I bought your 5-piece Care Pak and I
started using “The guitar ONE” All I can say is that I am overwhelmed with the
result and so is my guitar. It is absolutely perfect and it does not leave
behind the film/fog like the other brand did. Well done, MusicNomad Team, for
having created a superior guitar care product. I can recommend it to all my
other friends who own guitars.

They are the best products I have found to clean and
restore all types of finishes
John MacLean a musician from New York emailed us:
Yeah I like the polish, that’s true. But as far as I am
concerned your product has saved my 1981 Les Paul. That’s right it did!! I’m
sure you are well aware of those Nitro finishes & over time those necks can
get tacky. Through the years it got worse and worse used lots of different
products but in the end would pretty much polish well and get anywhere from a
half hour to a hour out of it before it got tacky and had to polish and buff
again. I guess I pretty much accepted is as nature of the beast. Then I used
your product, Pro Strength Guitar Polish!! When I applied it to the neck at
first I thought it was stripping the paint the polishing cloth was kind of
dirty. And then I realized it was cleaning like it has never been cleaned
before years of dirt sweat imbedded into the finish and just being covered up
and sealed in by other products through the years. After all of this was
removed, that neck has not felt that good since the eighties. I now have a
guitar, which sounds incredible, and is again a JOY to play like it hasn’t in a
long time. Thank you!

One of the few polishes that really works on Gibson
Guitars
Tim F. is in charge of casing at Knaggs Guitars hand made
high end acoustic & electric guitars.
I've used a handful of cleaners & polishes during the
course of my 10 years in the guitar business. Hands down, MusicNomad's Guitar
One is the best! It goes on easily & smells great. But best of all it makes
our guitars look and feel like silk! It gives the finish a 3D effect and the
neck a smooth non sticky feel! It's liquid gold! Thank you guys!
