I finally picked up a humidifier from Craigslist last night. $10. not too shabby.

Anyone else using a humidifier for their guitar storage space?

Yep, I have a humidifier in my guitar room along with incase humidifiers.
Do you keep your guitars in a case at all times? i cant bare having them put away, i like looking at them, plus, i just got a rockstand, so they're all sitting out.

Acoustics are put away for sure. Too dry out here in Calgary. Electrics sit around, my archtop is put away as well.
Yeah, i've got em all out in the open..
I'm trying to find a good deal on a humidistat, so i can keep a really close eye on the levels in here.
Just got a unit for testing humidity, thought it was a problem. just affected 1 guitar, rest are Ok. running between 30 to 40 % naturally.(recommended 45%)
Put all my accoustics back in their cases this weekend with a little bowl & cotton batton & water just as a precaution. (hint- if you do this-guitar case must be in the standard missionary position - flat on it's back - LOL)
I am going to monitor the water disipation in the cases for the next little while just to be sure.( little bowls from mama's egg poacher work nicely, with a little thievery from her cotton batton stash)
Currently the electrics are in their stands, but I am now monitoring the room daily.L&M wanted $15. for a fancy thing that goes in the sound hole, but won't work for an "f" sound hole or if you have dean markley P-ups in the way.
With 6 accoustics @ $15 each plus tax, money saved may be used towards another guitar (LOL - Don) (spent $300 at L&M on other stuff anyway)
cheers
