Using your Fender Player Plus Jazz Bass is easy. First, plug it into an amplifier using a standard instrument cable. You can adjust the tone using the 3 - band active EQ. If you want a more traditional sound, switch to the passive mode with the toggle. When you're playing, hold the bass in a comfortable position. Rest the body on your leg and use your fretting hand to press down on the strings at the desired fret. Your plucking hand can use either your fingers or a pick. For maintenance, keep your bass clean. Wipe it down with a soft, dry cloth after each use to remove fingerprints and sweat. Check the strings regularly for wear and replace them when they start to sound dull. You can also occasionally adjust the truss rod to keep the neck in proper alignment, but if you're not sure how to do this, it's best to take it to a professional. Store your bass in the included Deluxe Gig Bag when not in use to protect it from dust and minor bumps.
