Using your Fender Japan Traditional II 60s Precision Bass is easy. First, tune your guitar using the vintage - style tuning machines. Then, plug it into an amplifier to start playing. The 4 - saddle vintage - style bridge allows you to adjust the string height for better playability. When you're done playing, put it in the gig bag to protect it. As for maintenance, keep your guitar away from extreme temperatures and humidity. Wipe the strings with a clean cloth after each use to prevent corrosion. If the frets start to feel rough, you can have them polished by a professional. Regularly check the tuning machines and the bridge to make sure they are in good condition. And if you want to change the pickups in the future, consult a guitar technician for the best results.
