important to avoid sudden changes in temperature since this may cause checking to the finish. While this condition does not affect the tone, it does mar the finish. Let the instrument warm up safely in its own case. Then, open the case gradually allowing warm air to enter slowly. After the instrument is removed, leave the case open so it, too, can warm up thoroughly. If exposure to temperature extremes is unavoidable, as during shipping, string tension should be reduced to avoid possible damage. Change your strings often. Dirty, corroded or worn strings cause loss of sustain, loss of treble frequencies and faulty intonation. If your guitar needs repair, refer all such work to your Authorized Fender Dealer whose trained personnel and complete service facilities assure your satisfaction.
