Using your EVH Wolfgang Special Electric Guitar is easy. First, plug it into an amplifier using a standard instrument cable. You can adjust the volume and tone using the knobs on the guitar. The volume knob gives smooth swells, and the tone control helps you get the right sound. When it comes to tuning, the EVH - branded Floyd Rose® locking trem and locking nut keep your guitar in tune even when you make big pitch changes. And with the EVH D - Tuna®, you can quickly change to drop - D tuning. For playing, the maple fingerboard with 22 jumbo frets and black dot inlays makes it easy to find your way around the neck. Now, for some care tips. Keep your guitar in a cool, dry place to avoid warping the neck or damaging the finish. Clean the strings regularly with a soft cloth to keep the sound clear. You can also clean the body and hardware with a guitar - specific cleaner. If you need to adjust the truss rod, use the spoke wheel at the base of the neck, but be careful not to over - adjust. And don't forget to use the included tremolo arm for some cool effects, but make sure to put it away safely when not in use.
