Using your Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition Roasted Stratocaster Special NOS Electric Guitar is straightforward. Just plug it into an amplifier and start strumming. You can use the pickups to change the sound. For a brighter sound, use the bridge pickup, and for a warmer tone, switch to the neck pickup. When not in use, keep it in the deluxe hardshell case to protect it from scratches and dents. Clean the fretboard regularly with a soft cloth to keep it in good condition. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures and humidity as this can damage the wood and affect the tuning. The included Certificate of Authenticity proves that your guitar is a genuine Fender Custom Shop instrument, so keep it in a safe place.
