It took me 6 years of playing guitar to realize this mistake I was making. I kept saying to myself, “Why is my guitar out of tune EVERY SINGLE TIME I PLAY IT?” Well It’s because of only 1 issue. The humidity in your room is killing your instruments! If you don’t know what humidity is, it is the amount of water vapor in your room. The more humidity there is in your room, the more wet it is. The less humidity, the more dry. Relative humidity is measured from 0-100%. And you typically want around 42-50% relative humidity for the room that your guitars are in. And if it is any lower, or higher, you can run the risks of getting cracks in your guitar, neck warping, and strings always falling out of tune. So I know what you’re asking, “How do I stop this abomination from happening?” RELAX! Because I am going to tell your right now.

What you need is 2 ESSENTIAL THINGS! You need a hygrometer. Which is a small device that measures & tells you the amount of humidity in your room. And next, you guessed it, a humidifier! To be able to control the amount of humidity that goes into your room. And a bonus, if you keep your guitar in a hard case. That is so much better than leaving it out in the open. And if you keep it in the case, it’s always great to store any type of guitar humidifier either on the guitar, or in the case while it’s there. Please guys, take care of your instruments. I just recently started doing this. And I can only imagine the amount of damage I’ve caused on my instruments, just because I was too lazy to start taking care of it.

Take care of your instruments, before it’s too late.
