Using this Fender American Vintage II 57 Stratocaster Electric Guitar is a breeze. First, tune it up using the tuning machines. You'll notice the smooth action of the vintage - style tremolo bridge, which allows you to add cool pitch - bending effects to your playing. The three single - coil pickups give you a wide range of tones, from bright and twangy to warm and rich. Just switch between them using the pickup selector switch to find the sound you like. When it comes to maintenance, keep the guitar in its provided vintage - style tweed case when not in use to protect it from dust and damage. Wipe the strings down after each use to prevent corrosion. If you notice the action getting a bit high or low, you can adjust the bridge saddles. Also, every few months, give the fretboard a light clean with a suitable fretboard cleaner to keep it in top condition. And always store the guitar in a place with stable temperature and humidity to avoid any warping or damage to the wood.
