Planet waves packs......Summer
 

Well its Summer in Maine. Wait all winter for it. Humidify my Martins carefully. Like to leave them out in a stand now that we have humidity. However the strings are rising as we speak. Lower frets are fine but 8 on up are becoming difficult to play. Wondering if leaving it in the case with the humidipaks would help ? Should I just have both Martins (D28M and D18GE) set up for the Summer season ? What do others do ????

Does anyone else use these ????

I don't use them, but I've been seriously considering them over the last few weeks.

here's a pretty in depth review that talks about using them during humid weather

According to the reviewer, they worked both ways. Kept guitars humidified during dry days, and kept them around 48% during exceptionally humid ones.

"...According to the reviewer, they worked both ways...."

Of course that review is on a commercial site that benefits from selling the product.

...I'm just saying... :-)

If you insist...

Now that's more what I'm talking about. :-)
Thank you.

Here are more reviews that take into account relative expense of the product in use.

My expirience is that one of the three seems to harden. Am trying the reverse and keeping one guitar in stand and one in the case with packs. Will see what happens.
