Using your Fender CD - 60S is a breeze. First, make sure the guitar is in tune using the chrome die - cast tuning machines. Sit comfortably and place the guitar on your lap. You can strum the strings with your fingers or use a pick. For a more diverse sound, try different strumming patterns. When not in use, keep the guitar in a dry and cool place to prevent damage to the wood. Wipe the strings with a soft cloth after each use to remove sweat and dirt. Check the tuning regularly, especially if you move the guitar to a different environment. And don't forget to change the strings every few months for the best sound quality.
