Fender Speed Slick String Cleaner

Fender Speed Slick String Cleaner
I have been a long time user of the original GHS fast fret 'speed slick string cleaner', however the last couple of fast fret sticks I have purchased have been disappointing and I found the newer versions are nowhere near as effective as the old ones so I thought I would try this alternative product from fender and I am delighted I did.
For a start the fender stick is so much better because the shape of the application pad is long and thin rather than round which means it is even faster and easier to apply the solution, this shape of pad means you can make a single pass or two at most to cover all the strings at once rather than having to do each string individually.
The cap also holds a small cloth to wipe down the strings after each application to clean the string and remove excess solution.
Secondly and most importantly the lubricant / cleaning solution is as good or better than any of the alternatives.
I tend to use it after I play to clean and preserve the strings but it can also be apply before playing to lubricate the strings and board if your into high speed playing.
I am delighted with this product and have no hesitation in recommending it.

Fender Speed Slick String Cleaner
I have been a life long user of the original big brand of 'speed slick string cleaner', the classic GHS fast fret, however the last couple of fast fret sticks I have purchased have been disappointing because they have obviously changed the recipe or something and the newer versions are nowhere near as effective as the old one so I thought I would try this alternative offering from fender and I am so glad I did.

I always use a bottle of D'Addario string cleaning liquid in the house on my guitars and it's great but I am always worried the bottle might break or spill in my case when gigging so I've used Fast Fret to clean my strings for a number of years. Unfortunately I've have noticed the quality of Fast Fret has diminished the last two times I have bought it so I thought I would try something different. I checked out the various other string cleaners and this one seemed the best for value for money so I took a chance and bought it - I'm glad I did. This Fender product is perfect for gigs as it can't leak and it applies quickly easily to the guitar neck. It does a good job of removing dirt and making the strings feel more fresh and slick, prolonging the string life. All in all - recommended!
