Using your Fender Acoustasonic Player Telecaster is a breeze. To change between the acoustic and electric tones, just use the 3 - way switch. It's super easy and gives you a lot of sound options. When you're playing, make sure to hold the guitar comfortably. You can rest it on your leg if you're sitting or use a strap if you're standing. For maintenance, keep your guitar in a dry place. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures and humidity as it can damage the wood and electronics. After each use, wipe down the strings with a soft cloth to remove sweat and dirt. This will help keep the strings sounding good and last longer. Also, check the tuning regularly. You can use a tuner to make sure your guitar is in tune. If you need to change the strings, follow the instructions that come with the Fender® Dura - Tone® 860CL Coated Phosphor Bronze strings. When transporting your guitar, always use the Deluxe 1225 Gig Bag that comes with it to protect it from bumps and scratches.
