What are the good room humidifiers for a bedroom full of guitars?

Check out the acoustic room at GC there in PHX. The one they have there was the one we researched when I helped open the store a few years ago, and they are pretty great and not horribly pricey- though you get what you pay for. |

Stu,
That's the steal of the century.
I lived in Minnesota, so I know the problem. The static electricity is something I don't miss. I do miss the water and woods, and that's where you're lucky to be in Anchorage. But not the Aleutians. My dad was there in WWII and has a lot of photos. Is there a tree anywhere in the Aleutians? |

I use your basic humidifer found at WallyWorld, seems to do the trick.

John,
I just checked your site. It's incredible. What a great resource. Just the link on Tuck and Patti alone, and that's just one small corner in your Carnegie Hall of a site.
I'm going to go back and spend some hours on this. I can tell that we have the same musical interests because I revere all of the musicians you list as your resources. That is, the names I know. I have a lot of research to do listening to the ones I don't know.
Tiny Moore was my first teacher. Were you at Berklee when he gave a master class there? I took tenor banjo lessons from him, and then took 5 string banjo from a compadre of Dave Guard's, and now 5 string banjo is my main instrument. I first got into mando because I knew the chords from Tiny's tenor lessons, and because I heard Jesse.
Would you like some free mandola strings to give to a student? I'd pay the postage. I hate wasting things like this.
2 complete sets of Pearse #2250 phosphor bronze 12 21w 32w 49w
4 strings of La Bella #MA-150 silver on steel 19
4 strings of La Bella #MA-150 phosphor bronze 44w
2 strings of Daddario flat tops #FT7604 phosphor bronze 53w
Also, were you the one who had a lot of far east CDs for sale?
There is one big difference between us, but I'm willing to overlook it: You can play.
SGF continues to astound, and sites like yours are the biggest reason why. |
