What is Boveda?

Boveda is the global leader in 2-way humidity control. It’s engineered in a wide range of Rh (relative humidity) levels to respond to ambient conditions. Boveda will add or remove moisture as necessary to regulate within 1% of the pre-determined Rh to create a stable environment for the item it’s protecting. And because of it’s low cost and completely maintenance free, it’s the only choice by some of the biggest brands in their respective industries.

The importance of proper wooden instrument storage

Improper storage is the greatest constant danger to the condition of a wooden instrument. Until now, humidfied storage meant refilling awkward and unreliable sponges, snakes or discs. Those products only work 1-way, they add humidity whether it’s needed or not, while Boveda is the world’s first 2-way humidity control.

If not properly stored in a stable environment, the instrument will lose the specific geometry built into it while it was being crafted at the climate-controlled factory. This can cause warping or shrinking, which will change the tune at the least and cause damage at the most. In fact, many “problems” with wooden instruments can be avoided with properly humidified storage.

As the global leader in 2-way humidity control, Boveda 49% is the only maintenance-free method of guaranteeing proper wooden instrument storage.

Boveda is the only product Bob Taylor from Taylor Guitars recommends for safe, simple way to maintain your guitar and case.
