Section 5 – Setting Up Your Guitar
BONGO bass Section 5 - 5 -
5.6 …Other Hints
There are a few other things that you can do to optimize your tuning stability:
1. Each time you play your guitar, before you do your final tuning, play for a few minutes to allow
the strings to warm up. Metal expands when warm and contracts when cool. After you've
played a few riffs, you can then do your final tuning;
2. Wipe the strings, neck and bridge with a lint-free cloth after playing;
3. When transporting or storing your guitar, even for short periods, avoid leaving it anyplace you
wouldn't feel comfortable yourself.
Remember, guitars are tempered instruments! Re-tune, play and make further adjustments as needed.
We hope you have enjoyed building your guitar! If you have any questions along the way please email
