Usage and Maintenance

Q. How do I properly maintain my Highwood guitar to ensure it lasts?

• To maintain your Highwood guitar, regularly clean it with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and sweat. Keep it in a hard case when not in use, and store it in a stable environment away from extreme temperatures and humidity. Change strings regularly, and check for any loose hardware or parts. Properly humidify the guitar to prevent cracks and warping, and consider professional servicing periodically to ensure optimal performance.

Technical Specifications

Q. What are the key features of Highwood guitars and how do they benefit me?

• Highwood guitars are known for their premium tonewoods, innovative bracing patterns, and custom electronics. Key features include solid wood tops, hand-carved necks, and unique finishes. These features provide rich, resonant tones, exceptional sustain, and superior playability, benefiting players by enhancing their musical expression and performance.

Setup and Adjustments

Q. How do I properly set up my Highwood guitar for the best sound?

• Ensure your guitar is properly tuned using a tuner. Adjust the action (string height) to your preference by raising or lowering the bridge saddles or nut. Set the intonation by ensuring the strings play in tune up and down the neck. For detailed adjustments, especially those involving the truss rod or significant setup changes, consider consulting a professional guitar technician.

Compatibility and Accessories

Q. Can I use any type of strings on my Highwood guitar?

• While you can use various types of strings, it’s recommended to use high-quality strings that match your playing style and the specific model of your Highwood guitar. For acoustic models, phosphor bronze strings are a popular choice for their bright, balanced tone. For electric models, nickel-plated steel strings are commonly used. Using the right strings will enhance performance and tone.

Troubleshooting

Q. What should I do if my Highwood guitar starts producing unwanted buzzing or noise?

• Check for any loose parts, such as tuning pegs or the bridge. Ensure the strings are properly seated in the nut and bridge saddle. If the action is too low, it can cause buzzing; adjust the saddle height if necessary. Additionally, check the neck for any warping or bowing. If the problem persists, consult a professional guitar technician for a thorough inspection and adjustment.

Highwood guitar saddles 

offer superior construction and durability compared to standard saddles for strat & tele style bridges. Made of high-grade polymers, they provide more consistent intonation and superior string action, resulting in improved sound clarity and projection.
