Cleaning

The piece must be kept clean and spotless during its exhibition.

Cleaning the Varnished Wood

Use a damp cloth to clean off fingerprints and other marks from the varnished wood.

⚠️ Do not scrub, wipe gently.
⚠️ Do not splash water on the varnished wood.
⚠️ Do not use any chemical product to clean the varnished wood.

Cleaning the Glass

Spray cleaning product or vinegar on cloth, and then wipe the glass to clean it.

⚠️ Do not spray anything on the glass, as liquid dripping from the glass could damage the varnished wood.

Repairing

While guitar strings are meant to be broken, the artwork itself must be maintained.

Changing the Guitar Strings

[TODO)

Broken Gears

If by any chance a gear breaks (wooden or 3D-printed), the broken part must be fixed by the artist. Replacing the gears should be attempted without the artist being present.

Issues with Electronics

In the unlikely event that the internal electronic components of the piece are broken, please contact the artist for assistance. While it may be possible for the piece to be repaired, this will depend on the damage or the availability of replacement parts.
