I recently bought a martin 00-15m and I adore it. I was wondering if I need to do anything special to clean it, or should I just use a dry cloth on the body. And for the fretboard should I just wipe that down as well or can I use like lemon oil and stuff. I really don't want to ruin since its my first nice acoustic and I can't find any information anywhere. Any help is appreciated.

You can rub the gunk off with a damp(not wet) cloth, then with a dry cloth.
Then maybe once a year finish it off with a bit of Martin guitar polish, but its not really necessary IMO.
Some lemon oil on the fretboard after a good cleaning once a year, or whenever it begins to look dried out wont hurt. If its ebony you prob dont need to, but it wont hurt.
