Humidity?
I'm just curious for some info that may be relevant to purchasing a guitar from a location not local, or about travelling with a guitar. What should we know about this?
For example, my guitar was built on the left coast of Canada. A rainy place, but never quite as humid (pegajoso), as say Southern Ontario, or S. Korea, or most of the places I've been in China. But it's never really dry here either, like it would be in an Ontario winter, or a summer perhaps in Spain. If I was to travel, would a certain kind of case be better to help climate control, how necessary are things like hygrometers &c?
Or if I bought a guitar from Mexico or Spain and had it shipped over, do the same recommendations for travelling apply, or is can guitars be acclimatised to their new homes?
