Performing tuning while a string is rubbing up against the wall can result in a broken string or the like. • When winding strings, be careful that the bridge is not pulled by the strings and pushed down towards the fingerboard. 4. Turn the pegs to perform tuning to match the sound of a piano, tuning fork, tuner, or the like. For more information about tuning, see the cautionary notes under "Tuning" (page 12). NOTICE • When not using the instrument for a long period of time, slightly loosen the strings before storage. • Always use the product with the bridge standing vertical to the surface on which the bridge rests. Using the product with the bridge leaning to one side can shorten the service life of the bridge and reduce sound quality.
