Hey Matt, Great. I am going to make my humidifers myself. I have many acoustics. Enjoyed and liked your presentation a lot. Tom Riccobono / NYC

Is this only for accoustic guitars, or for electric guitars as well?

Though not as vulnerable as your acoustic guitars, your electrics would benefit from humidification as well. Thanks for the comment! -Matt
