I've read through old posts about solid wood instruments and humidity but still had a few questions.
We live in Illinois, USA. Forced air heating. Today temp is 6 degrees fahrenheit.
I have a solid mango uke coming next week and I want to make sure I'm ready for it.
I am ordering:
Oasis OH-2 Digital Hygrometer for case
Oasis OH-18 Ukulele Humidifier
A good quality indoor Hygrometer Thermometer for the room
My question:
Case - Should I go with solid or heavy padded? I was looking at a Featherlight Polyfoam Case online. Thoughts?
Research tells me, unless the relative humidity of the house is between 40 - 60% I need to store the uke cased with hygrometer. Correct?
Other thoughts or suggestions? Things I'm forgetting?
I appreciate it! Thanks!
