Members Dave Owens Posted July 16, 2006 Members Share Posted July 16, 2006 moisture and then dry is the worst...i was at a local music store here in indianapolis and someone came in with 5-10 guitars from John Mellencamps band..and they had left the strings on all of them while they were in storage and the were beyond fubarded...a real mess , a couple were gibson acoustics and a couple others were old Deans..all with warped necks..pull up tops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DirtyBird Posted July 16, 2006 Members Share Posted July 16, 2006 Im thinking humidity is... within reason, good for them. It's the dry cold you have to be careful for... it causes the wood to dry out and crack and.. I have no idea I'm just talking out my ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members matt_v Posted July 16, 2006 Members Share Posted July 16, 2006 yes, humidity is better. however, the WORST is a drastic, sudden change between the two. that'll kill the wood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Trazan Posted July 16, 2006 Members Share Posted July 16, 2006 Aye, like matt_v says, sudden changes in temperature is probably one of the worst scenario's for your guitar. Like pulling it out of the case in a warm room when the temperature of the guitar is still freezing from it being stored in a cold climate for some time (applies only when the owner of the guitar knows what snow is).

Members jimmrm Posted November 10, 2017 Members Share Posted November 10, 2017 Taylor says dry is worse it'll crack the wood eventually. They have an article on their site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
