How to use

Tune the guitalele to standard guitalele tuning (typically A–D–G–C–E–A, a fourth higher than standard guitar) or to the tuning you prefer. Hold and play it like a small classical guitar, using fingerstyle or a pick. Regularly check string tension and tune before playing; nylon strings require a short break-in period and may stretch initially. Store the instrument in the provided gig bag when not in use to protect it from dust and bumps.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use a humidified case in dry climates, change strings periodically according to playing frequency, and have the instrument set up by a technician if you notice action or intonation issues.
