CHANGING STRINGS

Visit your local music store to purchase new strings

and get detailed instructions on how to change them.
Replace the strings periodically, as they will lose their

brilliance after a while. How often you change the strings

depends on the type of strings, their gauge or diameter.

Rule of thumb: When the strings start sounding dull,

this is a hint that you should replace them.

CLEANING YOUR GUITAR

Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the strings of your guitar

each time after you play. The wetness from your hands

can cause the strings to rust. Cleaning the strings

regularly will greatly prolong their life.
Polish your guitar from time to time using a high-grade

instrument polish containing small amounts of non-silicon

wax and maybe a little lemon oil.
To keep the fingerboard free from dry marks and cracks,

some lemon oil on a cloth applied to the wood should do

the job.

CARE

Do not lean your guitar against walls; it could get knocked

over or bumped into.
Never leave your guitar lying on the floor or on the edge

of your bed where it may get stepped on or knocked off

or even sat on.

Never leave your instrument in the trunk of a car when

the weather is very warm or extremely cold. Extreme

temperatures can be harmful to your gear. If you must

store your guitar inside a car, first remove the tension

from the strings and allow things to cool off or warm up

completely before pulling up to pitch again.
