Using your Cort X700 - DUALITY - II - PIB Electric Guitar is a breeze. First, make sure your guitar is in tune using the Cort® Staggered Locking Tuners. You can switch between different pickup sounds using the 5 - way pickup switching system to get the tone you want for different music styles. When you're done playing, put it in the included bag to protect it. For maintenance, keep the guitar in a dry and stable environment to prevent the wood from warping. Wipe the strings with a clean cloth after each use to remove dirt and sweat. Occasionally, check the frets for any signs of wear and the bridge for proper adjustment. And don't forget to change the D'Addario® EXL120 strings regularly for the best sound.
