When flying, do you guys use humidifiers, or don't you bother? If you do, what kind do you use?
 
I've never used one, but why would it be needed when flying? I'm under the impression that they are more necessary when in a dry area for LONG periods of time... :confused:
 
I heard it was necessary if there will be a large change in climate from your start destination and your arrival.
 
Do you mean humidifiers or desiccant packs (silica gel)?
 
Ummm...I don't know :confused: Something to stop the neck from bending all out of shape. I'll look into it a little more later.
 
Mate,these are Warwicks.Built to withstand anything,from some of the hardest tonewoods available.I wouldnt worry about it.A little humidity aint gonna do crap to necks like these.
*edit.I think it's acoustic guitars that humidifiers are designed for.

We had a member who's Thumb NT was soaking in water for a couple of days,after a storm flooded his basement.It ruined his flightcase,but the bass was fine.Another member's house burned down.The bass got cooked,the flightcase it was in had one half burned away badly & the other half toasted.Bass turned out fine.Thumb NT iirc.Another member in Norway,had his houses heating system go down mid winter,while he was away for a few days.When he got home,he found his Vampyre SN extremely cold,almost frozen.It survived just fine & he still owns & plays it,with no ill effects that I know of.
Your's should be fine mate.
 
Heh...So they're pretty tough then :)

This forum is fun, right? :-)

 
I kinda regret not starting a dedicated thread for things like that.
