Using this Fender Player Stratocaster is easy. First, tune it up with the standard cast/sealed tuning machines to get the right pitch. Then, start strumming or picking to create your music. The three single - coil pickups give you different tones, so you can switch between them to find the sound you like. When you're done playing, don't leave it in a place with extreme temperatures or high humidity. Keep it in a guitar case. To maintain it, clean the strings regularly with a soft cloth to prevent rust. You can also wipe down the body and fretboard to keep them looking good. And every once in a while, check the bridge and tuning machines to make sure they're working properly.
