CARE AND MAINTENANCE
A little effort will keep your new VOX guitar looking great for years to come. When you finish playing, wipe the guitar down with a clean, soft cloth. Use a quality guitar polish occasionally, following the manufacturer’s instructions.
Protect your instrument from temperature extremes and sudden chang- es in temperature. A guitar left in a hot trunk of a car at full string ten- sion can literally pull itself apart. A sudden blast of warm air on a cold guitar can crack the finish.
Your VOX guitar will sound best with fresh strings. Luckily, string changes are easy. Clip (or unwind) and remove the old string, and load the new one through the rear of the bridge. As you wind the string around the tuner post, keep in mind that the top wind should be over the free end, while the rest should be under. String tension will pull these winds together, clamping the free string end for better tuning stability. You need a 2 or 3 winds to secure the wound strings, and 4 or 5 for the plain strings.
