Using your D'Angelico Premier EXL-1 guitar is easy. First, make sure it's properly tuned using the Grover 109 Super Rotomatic tuning machines. Then, plug it into an amplifier and start strumming or picking. When you're done playing, put it in a guitar case to protect it from dust and scratches. To keep it in good condition, wipe it down regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Don't expose it to extreme temperatures or humidity, as this can damage the wood and hardware. Also, change the strings regularly to maintain good sound quality. If you notice any issues with the fretboard or pickups, it's best to take it to a professional guitar technician for repair.
