I'm just wondering about your guitar display case in this pic. Where did you get it? Does the door seal enough to keep the humidity constant during the winter?http://s123.photobucket.com/user/TheMaryAlice/media/IMG_2864_zpsf4q5c2nk.jpg.html

Hey aero... I cant remember where I got it; it was mail order. It wasnt this place, but it was about the same cost. Mine has a Plexiglas display - not glass - which would be quite heavy. I use a Vicks humidifier in the room, into which I put about a gallon of distilled water into each day. So the room is humidified well in our dry winters. Additionally inside the case, I also put a coffee mug filled with water and a sponge, and refill as necessary. My guitars have never had any humidity issues in the winter with this setup. Hope this helps.

I have this:

It is an old cupboard. I removed the glass shelfs, sealed the door with rubber strips, and attached a guitar hanger to the back. Works like a charm! I keep two Kyser lifeguard humidifiers lying inside during winter and have no problems.

I'm jealous of you folks that can run a humidifier all winter! If I did that, my house would fall apart from mold, the ceilings would get wet, and the windows would be fogged and frozen.

 

I can do it until it gets REALLY cold, though, and it's wonderful wonderful.

 

And then I suffer with the central heat forced air dryness while my guitars bathe happily in their humid cases.

Love it! I will be keeping my eyes open on the used furniture section in my newspaper.
