If it feels rough and unpleasant get a sheet of fine sandpaper, very
fine, and gently run it up and down the back of the neck as though
you were, ummm, stroking the neck of your beloved, very gently, with
very fine sandpaper. If there's still roughness, repeat with a slightly
less fine sandpaper. But be gentle.
Refresh the fret board with linseed oil, ie; take off the strings, and
carefully rub linseed oil into the fretboard's face. (Unless it's a
varnished maple neck, of course) But unvarnished darkwood necks
jest love them some linseed oil. Or cold-pressed almond oil. Try it,
your guitar will love it.
