Using this Gretsch G6228 Players Edition Jet BT Electric Guitar is a breeze. First, tune it up using the Gotoh® Locking tuning machines. You can easily adjust the tone with the volume and tone controls. Use the 3 - position toggle switch to choose between different pickup combinations. When playing, you'll notice the smooth attack and great sound from the chambered mahogany body and Broad'Tron™ BT65 pickups. As for maintenance, keep the guitar in the provided hardshell case when not in use to protect it from damage. Wipe the strings down after each use to prevent corrosion. Check the tuning regularly, and if the strings start to sound dull, replace them with new NPS strings of .010 - .046 gauges. Also, avoid exposing the guitar to extreme temperatures or humidity as it can damage the wood and the hardware.
