I have a bottle of Dunlop Formula No. 65 Polish and Cleaner, it does a fantastic job. My guitar has a similar finish to yours and after wiping and buffing it for a couple of minutes it looks like it just came out from the store. I usually do it when I change the strings.

You can get the whole set for $20 on Amazon. You might as well get a bottle of lemon oil for your fretboard, it makes it a lot smoother and nicer to play. The Dunlop one is the cheapest last time I checked, but you might get a better deal by getting a bigger bottle of mineral oil which is pretty much the same thing.

Also read the instructions on the bottles, you don't want to damage the finish of your beautiful guitar.

It's not a huge deal, it just means that the wood in your fretboard is drying out a bit. It's easy enough to fix, just get some fretboard oil from your local music shop, loosen the strings, and rub it on the fretboard.

In my opinion there's no need to get anything too specialized.

For the body and pickguard I typically use a household cleaner. It will depend on your guitar. I have a strat and the thick paint and finish really shield it so I'm comfortable diluting household cleaners and going with that. A lot of people don't recommend this due to harshness of the cleaner, but if you really feel that way it's easy enough to dilute with water. Make sure you just dab a cloth in it rather than soak. You don't really want to do a wet cleaning, but just enough moisture/cleaning action to remove dirt. The pickguard is plastic so no issue there.

For the fretboard I'd really recommend lemon oil. The dunlop one is $4 on amazon and can probably be found locally albeit maybe a few dollars more expensive. http://www.amazon.com/Jim-Dunlop-6554-Ultimate-Lemon/dp/B0002OOMW6/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1459372544&sr=8-3&keywords=dunlop+65

This will both help clean and condition the wood. It's a pain to clean the fretboard but if you're changing strings, might as well take advantage and get it done.
