Boveda Introduces New Humidity Control System
Boveda has announced a new humidity control system for acoustic stringed instruments including acoustic bass and guitar, upright bass, ukulele, and more. The device prevents warping and cracking while requiring no maintenance.
“The humidity control system is unique in that it responds to ambient temperature and moisture by adding OR removing humidity to regulate the pre-determined RH% engineered into each product,” Boveda writes. “Convenient packets are stored in an instrument case and absorb or emit purified water vapor through a semipermeable membrane.”
The Boveda Guitar Start Kit is available now for $28 with four-pack refills available for $16.
