I think it is important to understand the total care and maintenance that is associated with an acoustic guitar. I can't tell you how many people I have encountered that don't understand the effects of relative humidity can have on a acoustic guitar.
Now, there are some folks who live in areas where this is not so much of an issue, but others do not, the more lighter built instruments are more susceptible to these changes in R/H and understanding what these changes are will help you in preserving the life and health of your instrument.
Attempting to make adjustments to a guitar that is not at the proper humidity is just asking for trouble down the road IMO I am a firm believer in having a good setup done but step one in this process is making sure the guitar is at proper humidity.
