Rangerwood 55 Walnut smell

[pfranze78]

Hi there,

I bought a Rangerwood 55 in walnut, like the title said, and when opening the box I imidiately noticed a smell of old wood. The best I can do to decribe it, is like old furniture. I kind of musty smell, which hasn't fade away a bit yet. Is there anyone with a Rangerwood (or any walnut Vic/Wenger for that matter) who noticed the same and what have you done to remove the smell?

Here it is in action:

It’ll likely fade away in use, especially when getting exposed to oils and grease from hands etc.

Thanks, guess I will have to use it more often then.

There's probably something you could do to speed it up but eh, it'll go away on its own pretty soon.
