I just finished talking (emailing) with a guy who runs a place that sells humidity beads.......we had a long "heart to heart".

Anyway.........he can and will sell 50%RH beads for those of you who are concerned about guitar storage.

(It seems that 45-55%RH is what you need to avoid eventual cracking and warping or fine solid wood guitars).

I smash mine after each set so it may not help me.

^maybe you should look into 10% beads to make the guitars more brittle.

for years, my hygrometer has read a steady 65% in-house humidity which I've been ok with both for cigar and guitar.

But for christmas, my FIL gave me a nice little humidor w/built in hygrometer. It read 95% when I first opened it, so I left it open in my office for a few days. It still read 95%.

Now I'm confused, but I know one of them is wrong.
