  • Who filed the frets and didn't tell the guy he was doing this to his guitar?

  • R.I.P. that Taylor

  • @van1980 Today is a good day for Caracas, 66% and 26 Celcius, when you live so near from the Amazonas rain forest you can get 95% easy in raining season

  • @wolf69a really? 60% seems extremely high to me. 45-50 is good. But I'm in Canada where it's cold as shit so we want a STABLE humidity level.

  • @RedLedZep I wrote to Taylor and they said i should blow a hair drier inside the case before putting the guitar inside and a silica bag, and monitor with a hydrometer daily, to maintain it about 60 %, no less.

    Now the raining season ended and the humidity is 55 % but i now what to do next year.

    Imagine 90 % and 35 celcius is hard for me and mi guitar :-), even for mi dog

  • @wolf69a hey, just wondering if you figured out what to do about that. a dehumidifier perhaps? did the high humidity affect your guitar? or you? ha, how do you live, the air must be THICK!

  • Hi, i have a Taylor, where i live we have 90 to 95 % humidity, should i care, can i do something ?
