Mid 30s is cutting it close

I’ve got 15 guitars in my basement studio. 4 are acoustics. My RH is typically around 45 down there. The past few weeks it’s dipping down to mid 30s with this cold weather

The only one that has gone into the case with humidifier is a one month old acoustic….it’s too new

All my others have acclimated to the environment and I never see fret sprout or any movement and are never put in cases

If they are electrics and new to the climate, check for fret sprout….sharp when you run hand down neck. Not good. Avoid this.

If acoustics, if new to climate, put in case with humidifier

If vintage, you might be ok….just depends

Better safe than sorry
