Using your Cort SFX Myrtlewood Acoustic Guitar is a breeze. Just pick it up, hold it comfortably, and start strumming or picking the strings. The modern V - shape neck and jumbo frets are designed to make it easy for you to reach all the notes. When it comes to tuning, use the die - cast tuning machines with black knobs. If you want to amplify the sound, connect it to an amplifier using the Fishman electronics. As for maintenance, keep your guitar in a dry and stable environment. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity. Wipe the strings with a clean cloth after each use to keep them in good condition. Also, check the tuning regularly to ensure the best sound quality. When not in use, store it in a proper guitar case to protect it from scratches and damage.
