Entretien

1. Cleaning Your Guitar

Regular cleaning helps preserve your guitar's finish and playability.

• Wipe down the body, neck, and strings with a soft, lint-free cloth after each use to remove sweat and oils.
• For the body, use a guitar-specific polish occasionally to maintain its shine.
• Clean the fretboard with a specialized fretboard cleaner and conditioner to prevent drying and cracking.

3. Thread new strings through the bridge and wind them around the tuning pegs.
4. Stretch the new strings gently and tune them to pitch.
