ORIGINAL: timoteo Do not humidify/dehumidify your case without knowing what the humidity in your case is. That sounds obvious, doesn't it? Buy a small, cheap hygrometer to monitor your humidity. I have https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00153KVYG which I bought four years ago - there may be better choices these days, but this one will certainly work. Once you know your humidity in your case you can make an informed decision about how to control it. A damp sponge will work to humidify, IF NECESSARY, but you should check every day to make sure you're not getting it too humid. I keep my guitar between 40% and 50%, but that's pretty easy to do where I live - I rarely have to add or remove humidity here. And as Leñador said, your indoor humidity is not the same as the outdoor humidity - heating/air conditioning as well as just living in a sealed box will affect the indoor humidity, so unless you have a hygrometer I don't think you really know what your indoor humidity is. I was looking into getting some time ago mostly for my woodworking, so I guess it is time to invest in one. We don't have AC so we have all the windows and dorrs open with fans running.
