Peavey Guitar - Manual (Page 5)

Cleaning & Care
When properly cared for, your Peavey bass will offer you years of pleasure.
Playing your bass means that you will need to perform regular, general
maintenance, such as cleaning and proper storage, to keep it looking and
sounding great.
Every time you play your bass, body oils and perspiration are transferred to the
body, back of the neck, headstock, fingerboards, strings, tuners, pickups and
bridge. After you finish performing, but before you put your bass away, take a
moment to remove these contaminants.
