MUSICAL NOTE A A sharp/B flat B C C sharp/D flat D D sharp/E flat E F F sharp/G flat G G sharp/A flat A Bending Notes When you are playing a note, tilt your guitar's neck upward or downward: this produces an effect similar to "bending" strings/notes on a real guitar. 5 1 Hammer-Ons Your guitar also lets you play "hammer-ons": that is, pressing a fret, without strumming, to produce a higher note than the one being played. While that note is sounding: if you are already pressing a fret, press any fret between your left hand and the Strum Bar; or just press a fret on an "open" strum. MODES There's more than one way to play with your new guitar! Speaker With Lights ­ Take the enclosed cable and connect your personal music player (mp3 player, stereo, CD player, etc. *) to the guitar through the Input Jack. As music plays through the guitar's speaker, a light show appears on the neck. If you leave music playing through the guitar for about an hour ­ let's say you step away to sign autographs ­ the guitar will "go to sleep. " To "wake it up, " press the Mode button. If no music is detected in about 3 minutes, the guitar will "go to sleep. " Hear how the note changes? You can also do two-handed hammer-ons: 1. As you play with your finger on a fret, brush the Strum Bar to play that note. While the note is sounding, keep the first finger depressed and, with your strumming hand, touch a fret between your left hand and the Strum Bar. Jam ­ This mode allows you to play your guitar one of two ways: · By yourself, with no accompaniment · With a PMP (personal music player*) connected to the Input Jack and music playing through the guitar's speaker. Your playing will be layered over the music coming through the speaker. Adjust the volume of your PMP* so it is compatible with your guitar's volume. 6 1 * Not included Pull-Offs Your guitar also lets you play what are called "pull-offs"; the opposite of a "hammer-on. " A pull-off means you remove your finger from an already-pressed fret while the note is sounding, producing a new, lower note. Experiment with different settings, styles, and tones: have fun! Learn ­ This mode teaches you songs that are stored in the guitar's memory. 1. Lights on the fret board will blink: 12 frets, 12 songs, arranged in order of increasing difficulty. The first fret is the first lesson. Now You Play Once the phrase is done playing, it's your turn to play the phrase. You must play the correct notes and approximately in time: If you make three mistakes playing a phrase, a "clink" sound marks each missed note. (Don't take it personally: the world's greatest musicians have been booed, at one time or another. ) The phrase will then repeat at a slightly slower speed: give it another try until you get it right. * If you make two mistakes playing a phrase, a "clink" sound marks each missed note. If you make one mistake, a "clink" sound marks the missed note. (Don't let it go to your head. ) * When you make a mistake, the guitar will demonstrate the phrase again; to cancel this demonstration and immediately try to play the phrase again, touch the TONE Button.
