Using your Fender American Acoustasonic Stratocaster is a breeze. Plug it into an amplifier to enjoy its electric tones or use it acoustically to experience its natural sound. Experiment with the 3-pickup configuration to find your favorite tone. When you're done playing, always store it in the included gig bag to protect it from dust and scratches. Keep the guitar in a stable environment with moderate temperature and humidity to prevent damage to the wood. Wipe the strings after each use to maintain their tone and lifespan. Regularly check the tuning machines to ensure they are working properly, and if needed, have a professional guitar technician service the instrument.
