Using this EVH Wolfgang Standard QM Electric Guitar is a breeze. First, tune it up using the EVH - branded tuning machines. The 3 - position toggle switch gives you different pickup combinations: use the bridge pickup for a brighter sound, the neck pickup for a warmer tone, or both for a balanced mix. The volume and tone controls are easy to adjust with the black knurled knobs. When using the whammy bar, the EVH - branded Floyd Rose® Special bridge and R2 locking nut will keep the guitar in tune. As for maintenance, keep it in a stable environment to avoid temperature and humidity changes that could affect the neck. Wipe the strings with a clean cloth after each use to prevent corrosion. Check the truss rod adjustment occasionally using the spoke wheel at the base of the neck, but only make small adjustments if needed. And remember, this is a right - hand oriented guitar, so make sure it suits your playing style.
