Thread: String Instrument Cabinet

  1. #1

    Default String Instrument Cabinet

    I'd like to build a temperature and humidity controlled cabinet for my mandolins. Does anyone have instructions for making one or know where I might find instructions?

    Thanks

    I am sure some folks here have built things like that but in the meantime, here is one person's take:

    It may seem a stretch but read up on cigar humidors. Cigar aficionados are even more anal retentive about proper storage of their cigars than musicians are about our instruments.
