Members DeepEnd Posted March 6, 2007 Members Posted March 6, 2007 As I've posted elsewhere, I don't use a hygrometer at all. I depend on whether I can touch something made of metal without getting zapped and whether my skin itches. I think it was the immortal Freeman Keller who posted that if it's too dry for you it's too dry for your guitar. Sounds good enough for me.

I think it was the immortal Freeman Keller who posted that if it's too dry for you it's too dry for your guitar. Sounds good enough for me. My only problem with FK's approach is that I have a very high tolerance for dry air. My hands look like those of a 97 year old desert dweller. I don't want that for my guitars. I have a couple small digital hygrometers I keep on a bookshelf next to my guitar stands. I bought an atomic wall clock (radio controlled) from Costco awhile back which also shows temp. and relative humidity. They all agree within 2-3 % points, so I am hopeful I am getting an accurate reading. I leave my guitars on stands (4 of them all solid and the rest solid tops) so I try to stay on top of the RH.
