Care and Maintenance
The xtSA neck is reinforced by a double-action truss rod system. The
truss rod provides for easy adjustment when the neck reacts to changes
in relative humidity. Truss rod adjustments should only be made by a qual-
ified guitar technician. To avoid drying out your fingerboard, apply lemon
oil on a soft cloth and then to your fingerboard. Allow the oil to soak in for
a few minutes before removing the excess. This should be done with the
strings removed and at least once every year. The easiest way to keep
your guitar clean is by simply using a polishing cloth without using any
polishes at all. However if you are going to use a polish, please use a
non-abrasive, non-wax based polish. Apply the polish on a cloth first. Do
not spray it directly on to the guitar. After you have polished the area you
are working on, turn the cloth over to a 'dry' side and remove any excess
residue.
Wood reacts to changes in humidity. Too much dryness or moisture in the
air can have a negative affect on your guitar. If your guitar is exposed to
extreme temperature changes do not open your case without first allowing
the temperature in the case to slowly return to normal. This will help pre-
vent finish checking.
