Using your Gretsch G5013CE Rancher Jr. Acoustic/Electric Guitar is easy. First, tune it up using the deluxe die - cast tuning machines. You can adjust the sound with the volume, bass, middle, and treble controls on the onboard Fishman® Isys+ pickup/preamp system. The low battery indicator light will let you know when it's time to change the battery. When playing, hold the guitar comfortably by the neck, and use your fingers or a pick on the strings. For cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the body, neck, and strings after each use. Avoid exposing the guitar to extreme temperatures or humidity, as this can damage the wood and electronics. You can also consider using the optional gig bag for protection when transporting it. Regularly check the tuning machines and the bridge for any signs of looseness. If you have any issues with the electronics, it's best to take it to a professional guitar technician.
