Using your Ernie Ball Music Man Jason Richardson Signature Cutlass HH Electric Guitar is easy. First, tune it up using the Schaller M6 - IND locking tuning machines. Plug it into an amplifier and start strumming. When you're done playing, unplug it from the amp and store it in a guitar case to protect it. Keep the guitar in a dry and stable environment to prevent any damage to the body and fretboard. Wipe down the strings after each use to keep them clean and in good condition. Also, check the tuning regularly, especially if you're using the floating tremolo a lot. For the finish, use a soft, dry cloth to gently clean it. Avoid using harsh chemicals on the guitar as they can damage the high - gloss polyester finish.
