Using your Fender CD - 60S LH acoustic guitar is a breeze. First, make sure the guitar is properly tuned using the chrome die - cast tuning machines. Sit comfortably and hold the guitar in your left hand if you're left - handed. Place your fingers on the frets gently to create different notes. When you're done playing, it's important to store the guitar in a dry place away from extreme temperatures and humidity. You can wipe it down with a soft cloth after each use to keep it clean. Every few months, check the strings. If they start to sound dull or feel rough, replace them with new Fender® Dura - Tone® Coated 80/20 Bronze strings. Also, make sure to keep the fretboard clean and lightly lubricated to ensure smooth playing.
