It is strongly recommended to replace the strings of a guitar at least every 6 months and to take it to a professional for service at least once a year.
This will allow you optimal playing comfort as well as guarantee the accuracy and longevity of your instrument. It is particularly advisable to do this when you are starting out because it will make it easier to learn your instrument.
A musical instrument is made from a living material, namely wood.
This one will be brought to undergo various hygrometric changes during its life and this will directly impact your instrument on the playability and the tone .
It is therefore strongly recommended to bring your instrument at least once a year in order to check the general condition and prevent any damage in the future.
In order to preserve your instrument in good conditions, it is recommended to store your instrument between 40 and 60% humidity via a hygrometer and to act according to the reading of this one.
If the reader displays less than 40%, it will be necessary to humidify the room via a humidifier to return to a normal percentage.
If the meter displays more than 60%, you will need to dehumidify the room with dehumidifiers to remove excess humidity.
The guitar is made from wood species and these will work according to the ambient humidity. Your playing comfort will therefore be altered and it is then necessary to make an adjustment to take full advantage of your instrument.
A setting corresponds to the mechanical control, the setting of the truss rod, the nut, the action, the radius, the pitch and the pickups if the guitar has them.
The settings are adapted according to the playing of the musician, after having discussed together the musical style, the way in which the strings are attacked, we offer a tailor-made setting.
