Using this Fender Japan Traditional 60s Mustang Electric Guitar is a breeze. First, tune the guitar using the vintage - style tuning machines with aged white plastic buttons. Once tuned, you're ready to play. When you play, use the floating bridge with a dynamic vibrato tailpiece to add a cool vibrato effect to your music. The single - coil pickups will give you that classic vintage sound. As for maintenance, keep the guitar in the provided gig bag when not in use to protect it from dust and scratches. Wipe the body with a soft cloth regularly to keep the gloss polyester finish looking great. Don't expose the guitar to extreme temperatures or humidity as it can damage the wood and affect the sound. Also, change the nickel - plated steel strings regularly to maintain good tone quality. That's all you need to know to enjoy your Fender guitar for a long time.
