Using your Fender Limited Edition Player Stratocaster is a breeze. First, make sure your guitar is properly tuned using the standard cast/sealed tuning machines. Plug it into an amplifier and start strumming to enjoy its rich sound. When playing, the 2 - point synchronized tremolo bridge allows you to add unique effects to your music. For cleaning, use a soft cloth to wipe the body's gloss polyester finish and the ebony fretboard regularly. This will keep the guitar looking great. Avoid exposing the guitar to extreme temperatures and humidity, as this can damage the wood and hardware. Check the strings regularly and replace them when they start to sound dull or show signs of wear. The Fender USA NPS strings in.009 -.042 gauges are recommended for the best performance. With proper care, your Fender Stratocaster will serve you well for years to come.
