Greetings all. First post. First time ukulele owner (so total n00b). My Kala Tenor Exotic Mahogany should be delivered this Saturday from Sam Ash. I need to find a local shop here in Northern Colorado who can do a proper setup for me... and to find a case for it.
I wanted to ask you all about proper care/storage when not in use. The acoustic guitars I have were all purchased here in Colorado and I haven't had any issues with warping/cracking and they are all hung on a wall by guitar hangers. However, I'm a little nervous about the drastic humidity shift for the uke being delivered this weekend as it is going from one of the most humid climates in the states (Florida) to one of the most arid climates in the states (Colorado). We don't have a whole-house humidifier (yet).
What precautions/storage/care would you suggest? Case storage? Humidifier? Fretboard oil? Something else? Any brands or particular products you prefer?
Thanks for the tips.
