Using this Fender Player Mustang PJ Bass is a breeze. Just tune it up using the standard open - gear tuning machines to get the right pitch. You can experiment with the P Bass and J Bass pickups to create different tones. When you play, use your fingers or a pick according to your preference. For maintenance, keep it in a dry place. After playing, wipe the strings with a clean cloth to remove sweat and dirt. Check the frets regularly for any signs of wear. If you're not using it for a long time, loosen the strings a bit to relieve the tension on the neck. And don't forget to change the strings periodically for the best sound.
