Storage & Travel Your guitar is a piece of art that must be protected. When you are traveling with your instrument, loosen the tuning knobs a turn or two to take pressure off the neck, and protect it with a gig bag or case. While a gig bag offers some protection, mainly from dust, a hardshell case offers the best protection. If you plan to store your guitar for a long period of time (we don’t know why you would want to), remember to slightly loosen your strings to relieve pres- sure o

Strings Old strings produce dull, buzzing or dead notes, while a new set of strings ring clear and true. If you play often, you will need to change your strings often. A good rule of thumb is that if you play daily, you should change strings every two or three weeks. Replace your strings as you notice them becoming dirty or discolored, be- fore you experience a disappointing loss of performance. See page 12 for detailed instructions on changing strings. 11

Thread the other string end across the string saddle, across the nut and into the small hole in the cor- responding machine head tuning post.

Double Locking Tremolo - Changing Your Strings The Peavey double-locking tremolo system allows for pushing and pulling because the tremolo does not rest on the instrument body. Instead, it uses powerful springs, which are attached in the back of the body, to balance the tension created by the strings so that the tremolo “floats” within the enlarged cavity. While it is one the most reliable and popular tremolo systems in the world, to novice players, or even to the uninitiated seasoned player

Double Locking Tremolo - Changing Your Strings First, detune the 6th string (the thickest, top string) using the machine head tuner—two or three turns should remove the tension on the string. Then, using a mm Allen wrench, unlock the corresponding string clamp located at the nut. Then, back on the bridge, reset each Fine Tuner to its middle range. Now, you are ready to remove the 6th string. Using a mm Allen wrench, unclamp the 6th string at the saddle by loosening the saddle lock screws a

Tune-O-Matic™/Stop Tailpiece - Changing Your Strings To replace strings, thread the new strings through the string holes located on the back of the tailpiece and bring them up and over the saddle. The intonation can be adjusted by moving the saddle forward or backward using a Phillips head screwdriver on the adjustment screw at the rear of the bridge. Raise or lower the two height adjustment spinners on either side of the bridge to adjust string height. The height adjustment of the bar tailpie

Tuning Machine Adjustments Over time, tuners can become loose. Get in the habit of checking the tension with every string change. If you notice a change in the tension of a tuner, use a small flathead or Phillips screwdriver to tighten it (turn clockwise) or loosen it (turn counterclockwise) accordingly. Warning: While the screw should be snug, do not overtighten, as you may strip the screw. 1

String Action String action refers to the distance between the strings and the frets on a stringed instrument. Peavey technicians carefully set optimal string action on every guitar before it leaves our factory; however, changes in temperature and moisture (humidity), changing string gauges, making neck adjustments or tuning can alter string action enough to require a height adjustment to restore your guitar to factory specifications. Undesirable low action causes buzzing, while abnormal

Cleaning & Care When properly cared for, your Peavey guitar will offer you years of pleasure. Playing your guitar means that you will need to perform regular, general main- tenance, such as cleaning and proper storage, to keep it looking and sounding great. Every time you play your guitar, body oils and perspiration are transferred to the body, back of the neck, headstock, fingerboards, strings, tuners, pickups and bridge. After you finish performing, but before you put your guitar away, ta

Cleaning - Wood To clean and care for the major wood parts of your guitar (body, headstock or the back of the neck), Peavey recommends that you use a clean, soft, lint-free, dry cotton cloth and specially for- mulated guitar polish available at www.peavey.com/acces- sories. Use of an inappropriate rag or polish may result in scratching the finish of your instrument. WARNING: Peavey recommends that you do not use abrasives or solvents on your instrument.

Cleaning - Fingerboard Properly caring for your fingerboard requires special attention. Over time, a fingerboard may lose its natural oils and shrink or exhibit a worn or faded appearance. Peavey recommends that you periodically apply a small amount of Lemon Oil (available at www.peavey.com/accessories) to your fingerboard (after removing strings) using a clean, soft, lint-free, dry cotton cloth, taking care to remove excess oil immedi- ately. A little goes a long way! How do you know when

Cleaning - Metal To clean and lubricate the major metal parts of your guitar (strings, pickups, bridge, tuners), Peavey recommends that you use a different clean, soft, lint- free, dry cotton cloth and specially formulated guitar string cleaner available at www.peavey.com/accesso- ries. Forming a cloth fold and running it up and down the length of each string can quickly clean strings. Failure to routinely clean and lubricate the metal parts of your instrument, including strings, may res
