Using your Charvel MJ San Dimas Style 1 HSS FR E Electric Guitar is a breeze. First, make sure the guitar is in tune using the Gotoh® Die - Cast tuning machines. You can adjust the action and intonation according to your playing style. When playing, the smooth Speed Neck with rolled fingerboard edges allows your fingers to glide easily. The Seymour Duncan pickups give you a wide range of tones, so experiment with different settings to find your favorite sound. As for maintenance, keep the guitar in a dry place. Wipe the strings with a clean cloth after each use to prevent rust. The Satin finish on the body is sensitive, so avoid using harsh chemicals. The Charvel® Multi - Fit Hardshell Gig Bag provided is great for transporting and storing your guitar, protecting it from bumps and scratches. Be gentle when using the Gotoh® GE1996T Series Double - Locking Tremolo to prevent any damage to the bridge mechanism.
