Using your Fender Player II Stratocaster is a breeze. First, make sure your guitar is properly tuned using the Fender® ClassicGear™ tuning machines. Plug it into an amplifier and use the 5 - way blade switch to select the tone you like. You can get clean sounds from the neck pickup or more aggressive ones from the bridge. When you play, use the 2 - point tremolo to add some vibrato to your notes. To keep your guitar in good shape, wipe it down with a clean, dry cloth after each use to remove sweat and dirt. Don't expose it to extreme temperatures or humidity as this can damage the wood and hardware. Change the strings regularly, about every few months depending on how often you play. Use the Fender® USA 250L Nickel Plated Steel strings for the best sound. And if you're not using the guitar for a long time, store it in a proper guitar case to protect it from bumps and scratches.
