Some players like using isopropyl alcohol for cleaning their strings. The properties of alcohol are good for breaking down light oil build up on the strings. However, great care should be exercised when using isopropyl alcohol around the fretboard and finished areas of the guitar, particularly guitars having lacquer finish.
