Using your Ovation CE44P - SM guitar is a breeze. First, tune your guitar using the onboard tuner. You can adjust the sound with the three - band EQ and volume/gain control on the OP - 4BT preamp system for different performance needs. When you're not playing, keep your guitar in a dry and cool place to avoid damage. Wipe the strings with a clean cloth after each use to prevent rust. If you need to change the strings, use D'Addario® EXP11 Coated 80/20 Bronze Light Acoustic strings of the same gauge (.012 -.053). Check the tuning machines regularly to make sure they're working properly. If the low - battery light on the preamp system lights up, replace the battery promptly to ensure good performance during live shows.
