Using the Fender FA - 450CE is a breeze. When you're ready to play, make sure the strings are properly tuned using the open - back geared tuning machines. For amplified performances, plug it in and use the volume, bass, and treble controls on the onboard Fishman® preamp system to get your desired sound. When you're done playing, always store it in a proper guitar case to protect it from scratches and dings. Keep it away from extreme temperatures and humidity as these can damage the wood. Clean the strings regularly with a soft cloth to maintain their tone and prevent corrosion. Also, check the neck and bridge periodically for any signs of wear or looseness.
