Your guitar has six strings: three left strings (coiled wire) for playing lower notes and three right strings (steel
strings) for playing higher notes.
When unpacking, ensure that the following elements are included:
1 x Guitar / 1 x Guitar pick / 1 x Strap / 2 x Spare guitar strings / 1 x Instruction manual
*Note: You can play the guitar using your fingers as well as a guitar pick.
WARNING: All packaging materials, such as tape, plastic sheets, wire ties and tags are not part of this
product and should be discarded for your child's safety.
Tuning your guitar
Before you start playing, it is recommended that you properly tune your guitar
to avoid playing any wrong notes! To do this, use the tuning keys located at the
top of the neck.
Each key is attached to a string. When you turn the key clockwise, the string
will produce a lower tone, and if you turn the key in the opposite direction, the
string will produce a higher tone.
Your guitar is properly tuned when all the strings, played in an open position
(without applying your fingers on the frets), produce the notes indicated on
diagram A.
Warning: Be careful when turning the keys counter clockwise. If you turn them
too much, the strings may become too tight and break.
Start from the 6th string (thickest and lowest in tone) and continue until the 1st
string (thinnest and highest in tone) is tuned. Follow the order of the numbers
presented in the diagram opposite. If you start in the opposite direction, your
guitar may have a greater tendency to go out of tune as you play.
There are several methods for tuning a guitar. The easiest one consists in
using an electronic tuner. It will definitely simplify the tuning of your guitar. If
you don't have one, you can use the methods described below.
a) Using a piano
Play middle E/Mi on the piano (middle E/Mi
is the 12th white key, counting from the left
end of the standard piano keyboard, which is
composed of 88 keys). Adjust the 6th string (E/
Mi) cord up until it sounds the same. Refer to
the diagram shown to tune the remaining five
strings in the same way.
