A humidifier will protect your precious violin, viola, cello or double bass from damage, whether you live in Mt Isa or Melbourne.
Most of our Queensland customers will know that keeping your instrument out of the car during Summer is a most – but did you know your instrument needs just as much care in the cooler months?
Sudden moisture loss can put the instrument under stress, causing tuning instability, buzzing, shrinkage or even cracks in the plates. If you come into our Red Hill store during Autumn and Winter, you will notice we keep the store at a humid level (approximately 40%-60%) to ensure our instruments remain stable.
Placing a humidifier in your instrument case or actually inside the instrument can help prevent any damage from occurring.
A simple, inexpensive humidifier is all that is required to save your instrument from any damage caused by humidity. Humidifiers gradually release moisture into the surrounding air, protecting your instrument and your bow.
