Using your Fender 70th Anniversary American Vintage II 1954 Stratocaster is a breeze. First, make sure your guitar is properly tuned. You can use the vintage - style tuning machines to adjust the strings to the right pitch. When you start playing, the smooth 1 - piece maple neck and 7.25' radius fingerboard will make it easy to move your fingers up and down the fretboard. To get different sounds, you can use the 3 - position blade switch to select between the bridge, middle, and neck pickups. The master volume control adjusts the overall sound level, and the two tone controls let you shape the tone of the neck and middle pickups. For maintenance, keep your guitar in a dry place. The nitrocellulose lacquer finish on the body and neck is beautiful but can be sensitive to extreme humidity and temperature changes. Wipe the guitar down with a soft, dry cloth after each use to remove sweat and dirt. If you need to clean the strings, use a string cleaner and a cloth. When not in use, store your guitar in the included vintage - style tweed case. This will protect it from dust, scratches, and other potential damage. Remember, this is a limited - edition guitar, so take good care of it to keep it in top condition for years to come.
