Using this Fender Boxer Series Precision Bass Guitar is a breeze. First, make sure your strings are properly tuned using the Gotoh® Vintage Style tuning machines. You can adjust the sound according to your preference with the independent volume controls and the TBX™ tone control. For different playing styles, switch between the high - output P - Bass® split - coil pickup and the hot Jazz Bass® single - coil pickup. When not in use, keep it in the provided gig bag to protect it from dust and scratches. Regularly clean the body with a soft cloth to maintain the gloss polyester finish. Check the strings periodically and replace them when they start to wear out. Also, be gentle with the frets to avoid any damage. That way, you can enjoy your bass guitar for a long time.
