Using your Fender FSR Collection Authentic 1970s - Style Jazz Bass is easy. First, make sure the guitar is properly tuned using the vintage - style tuning machines. Plug it into your amplifier and adjust the volume and tone knobs to get your desired sound. When you're done playing, put it back in the gig bag to protect it. For maintenance, wipe the strings with a clean cloth after each use to prevent dirt and sweat from building up. You can also use a guitar polish on the body to keep the gloss finish looking great. Avoid exposing the guitar to extreme temperatures and humidity, as this can damage the wood and electronics. If you notice any issues with the frets, pickups, or bridge, it's best to take it to a professional guitar technician for repair.
