Using the Tom DeLonge Starcaster is a breeze. First, tune your guitar using the Fender locking tuners. These tuners are very stable, so you don't have to worry about the strings going out of tune easily. Plug your guitar into an amplifier, and start adjusting the master volume control. The treble bleed circuit helps keep the high - end tones clear and natural. You can play different styles of music on it, from chunky power chords to crunchy riffs. When not in use, store your guitar in a guitar case to protect it from dust and scratches. Wipe the strings with a soft cloth after each use to remove sweat and dirt. This will help the strings last longer and keep the guitar sounding great. Every few months, check the bridge and the tuning machines for any loose parts. If you're not sure how to do this, you can take it to a professional guitar technician.
