• 지판 관리: Periodically clean and condition the laurel fretboard with a suitable fretboard oil to prevent drying and cracking.
• 저장: Store the guitar in a stable environment, away from extreme temperature changes and humidity fluctuations, to prevent wood warping. A gig bag or hard case is recommended for protection.
