From the Wall: The Martin Humidifier

The Martin Acoustic Guitar Humidifier is the simple one. A soft tube of non-vinyl, non-allergenic resin sits in the soundhole without pressing on it, and the water-absorbing stem inside holds up to ten times its weight in water and releases it slowly through the holes in the tube. Fill it, wipe it, and put it in the guitar between sessions. Martin calls it the simplest defense against a dry winter room, which is what cracks tops and sinks action in the Northeast.

What's on the Wall

Humidifiers and hygrometers in stock now, with the price. Up to three per group, most expensive first; any others are in the collection.

Why a Guitar Needs One Here

Upstate New York winters are hard on acoustic guitars: heated indoor air drops the humidity in January and February, and a solid-wood guitar shows it. Martin's care guide recommends keeping a guitar at 45 to 55 percent relative humidity, checked with a hygrometer. Which one fits your guitar: guitar humidifiers in Glens Falls.

The Case Is the Rule

Martin's FAQ says it plainly: a humidifier in the colder months, and the guitar in its case when you're not playing it. We sell the humidifiers and walk you through it at pickup. Every Martin that leaves here leaves with a humidity conversation.
