Should I use a guitar humidifier in Columbia MD?
The climate here fluctuates pretty drastically throughout the year, (and recently there has been a pretty high degree of fluctuation throughout each day…) but for the most part the humidity stays fairly high. The only story I ever hear is the worst case scenario: “If you don’t use a humidifier, your guitar will crack and warp and fall apart and explode,” and what not. Mostly, this comes from the guys trying to sell me the humidifier, so I wanted to get some different opinions. I know Planet Waves also sells some “humidipak” thing that is supposed to adjust humidity both ways. Does anyone have any experience with that, or similar products? The main guitar I’m interested in protecting is a Taylor barritone, with a clear glaze that I don’t want any cracks in. Thanks!
Without a lot more info, it is not easy to give a specific answer.
your guitar wants to see “average” temps and humidity, just like us.
NOT extremes.
It likes humidity between 35%-60%
it can handle extremes, for short periods, but doesn’t like them, should not be stored in them.
If your humidity is above 40-50%, you don’t want to add anymore humidity.
We don’t know what the “average” humidity is in your area, so we don’t have much to go with.
In Az, you have to add a lot of humidity, in the early summer, when you run the air conditioner, (unless you use an evaporative cooler)
and in the winter, when you run the heat.
Heaters just suck all the humidity out of the air.
In the North, in winter, when it gets below zero, it is not uncommon to see 5% humidity in the house, even tho the weatherman may say it’s 50% outside.
Then you need to add a lot of water, or your guitar will probably crack.
In Fl, Houston, La, etc, the humidity is so high, most of the year, you don’t need to add much, if any !!!
If the humidity is already over 40%, DO NOT add anymore.
That is when the store was talking about, when they said “water damage”.
Too much humidity, over a long span, will weaken the wood, the top may raise up, the neck will probably move, lots of bad things can happen. Guitars are made of wood, and it moves, just like the wood in doors and windows.
It’s too bad the store didn’t explain all this better, so much depends on what time of year it is, what type of heat/air you use, and how often, MANY variables, that we don’t know????.
hard to answer in a short post
in other words if you have a humidity checker or thingie that shows you what the humidity level is then, see whether it is beow 40% or above 50% and if it is, i suggest you buy a humidifier
i took a lot of effort to type this post, hope it was helpful :]
