Using your Fender Custom Shop 1963 Stratocaster Journeyman Guitar is a breeze. First, make sure it's properly tuned using the vintage - style tuning machines with the Fender logo. Plug it into your amplifier and start strumming or picking to enjoy the unique sound produced by the hand - wound 60's Strat® pickups.
When not in use, always store it in the provided Custom Shop Brown Case to protect it from dust, scratches, and humidity. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures and direct sunlight for long periods, as this can damage the lacquer finish and the wood.
To keep your guitar in top shape, clean the strings regularly with a soft cloth after each use. You can also use a guitar cleaner to wipe down the body and fretboard. Check the tuning pegs occasionally to ensure they're working smoothly. If you notice any issues, it's best to take it to a professional guitar technician for servicing.
