Using the 3rd Avenue Junior Electric Guitar Pack is easy. First, take the guitar out of the gigbag. Put on the strap for comfortable playing. Then, connect the guitar to the amplifier using the included jack - to - jack cable. If you want to use the amplifier, you'll need to put in a 9V battery (not included). Adjust the volume and tone controls on the amplifier to get the sound you like. You can choose between clean and overdrive sounds. When you're done playing, put the guitar back in the gigbag for storage. To keep your guitar in good shape, wipe it down with a soft cloth after each use. Check the tuning regularly using the tuners. Avoid exposing the guitar to extreme temperatures and humidity. Also, be careful with the amplifier to prevent any damage to the volume and tone controls.
