I think it's syrup mixed with molasses and glue. At least, that's what the
neck on the 325 I tried felt like.

It's conversion varnish as far as I know. Hands drag while playing due to
the glossy finish? Rub it down with some 0000 steel wool to make it satin
if you don't care about keeping it original and untouched. I remember a
couple years back, someone posted something about using a certain Meguiars
polish to keep the neck nice and slick; try a Google newsgroup search for
that post- I think it also had to do with which polishes contain silicone...

Of course, do some research on the 'net or ask a competent repairman before
doing _anything!_

HTH,
Mike
