Strines
-
Your instrument
is
equipped
with
high-quality,
Peavey
nickel-wound bal-
anced 9s. String life may be greatly extended by frequent cleaning with
string cleaner. Dirt and perspiration tend to build
up on the underside of
the
strings, so
it
is
often
necessary
to
slide a rag between the strings
and
the fingerboard. Dirt-laden strings cause tuning and intonation problems,
as
well
as rust and corrosion.
For
optimum
performance, strings should be changed approximately once
a month, or
after about every twenty-four
hours
of playing.
Some players
prefer
to
change strings more often.
