Default String waxing
I was wondering what you folks do as far as waxing strings? Do you wax just the unserved part of the string or the serving as well? Cables too?

Wax it all. The whole purpose is to keep it protected from the elements and from abrasion.

If you use a good, quality wax, such as BCY ML-6, it will soak through the serving and condition the string beneath.
