There is a belief that vibration, as in string vibration, will open up a guitar’s tone. Even Ramirez said something about the crystallization of the finish over time, as it slowly dries, if played with consonant vibrations, results in a more musical structure. What I found is that if you bang some rumba on a guitar it opens up quicker, probably the physical attack on the soundboard is helping expel the moisture content and that makes the guitar seem to “sound” better. But I notice a similar thing happen before and after rainy days…before the guitar sounds dull and after it sounds great. Humidity is the thing.
