I bought a gibson SG standard recently (2005 model, nothing special) and while I love the guitar, I am slighly annoyed with the way the back of the neck feels. It's not sticky, but for lack of a better term and seems almost clingy after a few minutes of playing. I don't have overly sweaty hands and none of my other guitars have this issue. It gets kind of gunky feeling after longer sessions and I'm always trying to wipe the neck down. I've played other gibsons that seem to do this too. Is it something with their finish? Is there a simple way to eliminate the problem? I've seen people actually remove the finish from their guitar necks exposing the raw wood but I dont want to go that far.
