Well... The problem with guitars in cold places like Finland etc. is not so much the temperature, but much more the humidity. The humidity makes a guitar change in size and when this happens fast, cracs or deformations. you can have 0 degrees with 75 or more humidity one day and the next day minus 10 and 20 or even no humidity the next day. So take care. If you have more than 1 guitar, leave your beloved one at home in winter. Another problem is that central or electric heating dries a lot. and this means that your guitar is alway to dry. This leads to deformation or even destruction!!!!!! To everyone. Get yourself a hygrometer. It costs the same as a set or two of strings, and tell you when to worry. If it's very dry where you live, (below 35% rh) get a humidifier. It's good for you as well
