Using your Fender Player Stratocaster HSS Electric Guitar is a breeze. First, make sure to tune it up using the standard cast/sealed tuning machines. Plug it into your amplifier and adjust the volume and tone knobs to get the sound you want. You can switch between the different pickups - the humbucking at the bridge and the single - coils in the middle and neck - to create various tones. When it comes to playing, hold the neck with your fretting hand and use your fingers to press down on the strings at the desired frets. Your strumming or picking hand can use a pick or your fingers. For maintenance, keep the guitar in a dry place to prevent the wood from warping. Wipe it down with a soft cloth after each use to remove sweat and dirt. Check the strings regularly and change them when they start to sound dull or look worn. Also, make sure to keep the hardware clean to maintain its nickel/chrome finish.
