Using your Epiphone Inspired by Gibson J - 45 guitar is easy. First, tune it up using the tuning machines with ivory buttons. You can play it acoustically or plug it into an amplifier using the endpin jack. When playing, the comfortable rounded C neck and medium jumbo frets make it easy to move your fingers. For electric use, adjust the volume and tone controls on the soundhole. As for maintenance, keep it in a dry place to avoid damage to the wood. Wipe it down regularly with a soft cloth to keep the aged gloss finish looking great. If you're not using it for a long time, loosen the strings to relieve stress on the neck. When you're taking it out, consider using the optional hardshell or EpiLite™ case to protect it. And don't forget to change the Gibson Phosphor Bronze Acoustic Strings when they start to sound dull.
