Using the Fender Acoustasonic Player Jazzmaster is a breeze. First, plug it in and use the 3 - way switch to choose between acoustic and electric sounds. If you want to adjust the tone, turn the Blend Knob to get the perfect balance between clean and driven tones. When it comes to maintenance, keep the guitar in a dry place to prevent the wood from warping. Wipe the strings with a clean cloth after each use to remove dirt and sweat. For the fretboard, use a fretboard cleaner every few months. If you're going to store the guitar for a long time, loosen the strings a bit to reduce stress on the neck. And don't forget to use the included Deluxe 1225 Gig Bag when transporting the guitar to protect it from scratches and bumps.
