When you acquire a number of guitars, or have a music room that you can keep humidified, buy a large drum or wick type humidifier (Sears has some good ones) - remove the two refillable tanks and install a float/valve assembly and feed it from a cold water pipe. A non technical or even non-handy person can do this in a couple of hours for a total cost (including the humidifier) of under $300.00. Then, you never, ever, ever have to worry about humidity. I did this 10 years ago. Once a year I clean the valve assembly. The rest of the time it is fine.
