Using this Fender Paramount PM - 2E acoustic guitar is a breeze. First, take it out of the deluxe black hardshell case gently. Tune it up using the nickel - plated tuning machines. You can adjust the tone according to your preference with the Fender - and Fishman® - designed PM preamp system. When playing, hold the guitar comfortably, and the parlor body shape will fit nicely in your hands. For note - taking, the mother - of - pearl dot fingerboard inlays will help you find the right frets easily. When you're done playing, put the guitar back in the case to protect it from dust and damage. Keep it in a dry and cool place to prevent the wood from warping. Wipe the strings with a clean cloth after each use to remove sweat and dirt, which will extend their lifespan. Occasionally, check the tuning machines and hardware for any signs of looseness and tighten them if needed.
