How to Take Care of Your Instrument

 
  • Humidity

    • When not in use, rest humidifiers inside the soundhole between the strings and store in an enclosed case.

    • Ideal humidity levels for wood instruments are between 40% to 60% humidity

    • Oasis Humidifier

    Case

    • Protect your instrument from accidental damage by storing it in an enclosed case for transportation and everyday use.

  • Changing Your Strings

    • With regular practice on your guitar, your strings should be replaced around every 2-4 weeks depending on the eventual wear of your strings

    Refill Humidier packs/tubes

    • Depending on your choice of humidification, you must refill your humidifier every few weeks with DISTILLED water.

  • Cleaning your Fretboard

    • Wipe and remove dirt buildup on your fretboard by using Fingerboard Cleaner oil and scrub with a clean rag or cloth.

    • NEVER place heavy objects on the body or soundboard

    • NEVER hold the instrument from the body, also have one hand on the neck of the guitar

    • NEVER play your instrument without washing your hands first! Your strings and fretboard are highly susceptible to dirt buildup over time!

    • NEVER drop anything into the body of the guitar. It will get stuck and difficult to remove!
