CLEANING
Cleaning your guitar regularly is one of the best ways to maintain the finish and prolong string life.
Clean your guitar after each use, making sure to wipe the fingerboard and strings as well as any of the plated parts such
as tuners, pickups, bridge etc. Make sure to remove all perspiration, as it can lead to corrosion and rusting in metal
hardware and strings.
TUNING YOUR GUITAR
Tune your instrument using the tuning keys to raise or lower the pitch.
On a guitar with a locking tremolo system, you must first loosen the locking nut before you can adjust the tuning with
the tuning machines. Although locking tremolo systems have fine tuners located on the bridge, they only allow limited
(fine) tuning. Counter-clockwise rotation of the tuning keys will raise the pitch of the string while clockwise rotation will
lower the pitch of the string you are tuning. Tune your guitar starting with the lowest to highest strings.
After you have done this once, go back and double-check the tuning again. On some instruments you will have to do
this a few times, especially if the strings are new or you have a guitar with a floating tremolo bridge.
Tuning one string may affect the other strings and it is necessary to recheck the tuning until all strings are staying at the
desired pitch.
Note: New strings tend to stretch and detune until they settle. It is a good idea to stretch the strings when you have just
put on a new set. Do this after the initial tuning by bending notes and physically stretching each string by pulling away
from the fingerboard (be careful no to pull too hard as you may break a string that way).
After thoroughly stretching the strings repeat the tuning process.
