Essential kit for every guitar owner
Firstly, the care kit came in a neat and handy seen-through cylinder-shaped container, which holds all the necessary stuff nicely in order.
The polish is functioning very well, it doesn't leave waxy residues, easy to apply.
Metal cleaner is superb, all stains, dirt etc. comes really easily off.
Fretboard conditioner works really well too, it keeps your "workdesk" clean, appealing and in good condition.
Cloths are the pearl of this kit. It's good quality micro-fiber, so you can do the casual cleanings with it easily, take off all the small dust and fluffs that often other materials leave behind, including all the fingerprints and other stains without water. Not necessary to apply any chemicals so you can go all natural too.
The strap was relatively useless for me, since I had a leathery better one already, so I didn't have the need for this. But if you don't have a strap and just need something cheap, this will do the trick. Of course it won't be leather, so it will be slightly more slippery on your shoulder.
What I like the most, is the smell this kit leaves behind on the guitar. It's the smell of clean and well-taken-care-of equipment.
Overall, it's a very nice kit, well worth the investment, has all the essentials for you. Keeps your guitar looking sharp with minimal effort. Would recommend 100% to everyone.

Great for cleaning
My guitar went about 5 years without being cleaned. I decided to get this kit to clean it. It worked well. It cleaned everything perfectly except for some dots on my pickups that are pretty much embedded into them. The could probably be gotten out but with a little elbow grease they would probably come out.
This kit will work fine for any cleaning of any guitar. Please watch a video on youtube on how to clean a guitar properly to get the best results.

It´s ok, and more you need !
Gibson has built a name not only with the first-class guitars, but also the fabulous instrument care products. The care kit is the perfect gift or self-purchase for any player! The kit includes the Gibson Low Abrasion Metal Cream, Gibson Premier Fretboard Conditioner, Gibson Pump Polish Finishing Cream, three Gibson Polishing Cloths and a 2” Black Nylon Guitar Strap — all in a great bucket that can be taken with you anywhere

Good Kit
This is a good kit for a very good price. However the clothes that are included in the kit leave a bit too much residue at the beginning. Probably as the clothes wear off over time the residues might disappear as well. But, you might be better off with a piece of old cotton t-shirt or something. I cleaned my Epi Les Paul Custom Pro with this kit and it worked great. Metal parts are shinier and the fingerboard is smoother now. I recommend this product to anyone who wants a kit at a good price. Furthermore it even comes with a guitar strap. Not a fancy one but who can complain about it especially just having the Gibson brand on it calls for 10-15 Euros in value.

Very useful
This kit is very useful. It contains three cleaning products: for metal parts, for the body and for the fretboard. It also contains a strap and three microfiber cloth. The cleaning products are great! They cover you whole guitar, so there isn’t much more you need. The stap is good, it isn’t great, but what do you expect. For this price this kit is really great.

Decent all in one
I bought this to have some kind of convenient spot for all my cleaning stuff. The fret polish works well shining the frets and makes them smooth. The polish does what it says and doesn't leave any residue. Unfortunately I got 2 fret cleaners in my bucket and I didn't get the lemon oil so I can't review that part. The bucket itself holds up fine and the strap is quite comfortable. Good value for money if yours has all the right parts in it unlike mine.
Thomann were great about it and they refunded the missing part the same day I sent the email complaint.

Nice touch
Not convinced about the fast fret stuff though!

Very good
very good products but the strap is basically unuseful for the propose of the purchase, the preview version has small brush for the saddles and not a strap. The good difference is that now the cleaning product has a spray part.

Must-have set
I'm using this set for maintanance of my acoustics and electrics. It works quite well, especially wih removing sweat stains that stays on the wood surface after playing long. Agent that one applies on the fretboard is particularily efficient.

A good care kit for all Nitro lovers!
The kit seems very high quality but do not expect miracles. These products are not going to remove scratches or other finish problems. These are mainly to keep your guitar clean and protected. I would suggest, if you are using the kit for nitro finish, to not use the clothes included in the kit, but a pure microfiber cloth. Gibson clothes are good but they are too "dry" for a nitro finish and they tends to create micro swirles. If you want your high gloss finish looking at this best, this is the kit you need, but just do not exaggerate with applications.
