I have a brand new tele vintage 64 and she has a beautiful neck.
The rosewood is brighter than my American jazz bass , and seems to be more dry .

My question is :
If I do maintenance on my tele fretboard , like using lemon oil or whatever is right to keep the fretboard in a correct state of health , will my fretboard become more DARK ?

Yes, it will be a little bit darker, but not much.

I prefer the light one , but If necessary for the fretboard I will join on the dark side.
