Sounds like you need a Humidifier in the winter and a Dehumidifier in the summer. LOL

But seriously, is this for an acoustic?

Have you had some humidity problems with your guitar(s)?

no man its for my RR1 it was really humid here for a week and it warped the neck i got it fixed but i don't want to deal with it again. is there like somthing that i put in the % and it just keeps it that way??

Central air dude.OMFG it was humid for one week.

chuck it in the walk-in humidor with your cigars. That's what I'd do.

Those are cheap, eh? :P

I have central air now but, had 2 guitars in my old basement with no air for 5 years with no problem. One of those guitars I have still never taken the truss rod cover off, and its mahogony neck. I just try not to have sudden changes in temp or humidity and generally keep them in the case.

anyway sorry to here you had such a problem with your RR1, and what part of Canada is Right Behind You in? ...eh?

Toronto that one week was really hard on it. The Humidity and temperature chages alot so its hard on my guitars and i keep them in thier cases. the werid thing was that my RR1 got warped and my ibanez was fine it might just be that my RR1 is still pretty new and that wood hasn't cured yet and its still addjusting

I wouldn't think humidity would have a huge effect on a fully finished neck. Maybe the wood wasn't properly dried? I've never heard of Jackson letting any green wood slip through, but you never know.
