Installation Guide

Installation of these accessory parts typically involves removing existing components and replacing them with the new ones. Basic guitar maintenance tools may be required.

1. Knobs: Gently pull off the old tone and volume knobs. Align the new vintage white knobs with the potentiometer shafts and push them firmly into place. Ensure they rotate freely without obstruction.
2. Pickup Covers: Carefully remove the strings from the guitar. Unscrew and remove the old pickup covers. Place the new vintage white pickup covers over the pickups, ensuring they align with the pole pieces. Reinstall the screws if applicable, or simply snap them into place if they are friction-fit.
3. Tremolo Arm Tip: Unscrew the old tremolo arm tip from the tremolo arm. Screw the new vintage white tremolo arm tip onto the tremolo arm until snug. Do not overtighten.
4. Switch Tip: Gently pull off the old switch tip from the pickup selector switch. Push the new vintage white switch tip onto the switch lever until it is securely seated.

If you are unsure about any installation step, it is recommended to consult a qualified guitar technician.

Maintenance

To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Fender Pure Vintage 60s Stratocaster Accessory Kit components:

• Clean parts regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and fingerprints.
• Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the finish.
• Store your guitar in a controlled environment to prevent extreme temperature or humidity changes, which can affect plastic components over time.

Troubleshooting

Most issues related to accessory parts are minor and can be resolved with simple adjustments.

• Knobs are loose: Ensure the knob is fully seated on the potentiometer shaft. Some knobs may have a small set screw that needs tightening (though these vintage style knobs typically friction fit).
• Pickup covers do not fit: Re-check the compatibility section. If your pickups are N3 Noiseless or SCN, these covers are not compatible. Ensure the covers are correctly aligned with the pickup pole pieces.
• Switch tip is loose: Push the switch tip firmly onto the switch lever. If it continues to be loose, the switch lever itself may be worn, or the tip may be slightly oversized.

For persistent issues or concerns about your guitar's electronics, consult a professional guitar technician.
