QUOTE(+3kk! @ Aug 10 2016, 11:40 AM) here? no So by just leave it in my bedroom is ok enough?since our climate is quite humid as long as its not under the sunoverseas? maybe one thing to take into account is that you need not just silica gel but a hygrometer , which you need to monitor that the guitar stays around 40-50% ish humidity the good part about it is, due to our relatively stable weather, half the time you dont have to worry about it and majority of the time the worse case scenario is you get a bloated top. dry is actually worse, in general comfortable surroundings is the best, as long as you are comfy, the guitar will be fine once the heat goes up and you feel too hot or too try that you feel like you are getting sore throat, then its bad |

QUOTE(+3kk! @ Aug 10 2016, 12:23 PM) its not as simple as that Ive been reading on the internet about humidifying their guitars. Since maybe they live in a cold and dry country and we here living in a humid country here dont need to humidify is it? As long as need to monitor the humidity level and dehumidify it if neededbasically the first question is, is it a laminate or not? if its laminate, then you can not worry about it, they are quite resilient if its not, then you need to read the manual, what are the right conditions for the guitar for most cases its no a problem (I've never seen guitars go bad due to weather here), but theres no harm just double checking P.s my guitar body is satin finished btw |
