Oasis OH-6 Case Humidifier with OH-2 Digital Hygrometer

I originally bought this for my next acoustic guitar purchase since this purchase is current in.limbo I am using it for my current acoustic which is tentatively being retired. Moral of the story is the ser up is versatile be it a soft shell or hard shell case

Works great for my bagpipes. Easy to setup and attach to the case liner.

First time user. Found it easy to use. Still to early to give complete comment but will update it as time go on

I purchased a new Martin and am concerned about the low humidity created by the winter months. I purchased this product and followed the directions exactly. After almost 3 weeks the hygrometer (works great) indicates the humidity level in the guitar case has only come up 1%. I was hoping that the OH-6 humidifier would be more effective. I'm also concerned that the magnet will not hold the humidifier when transporting the instruement and that if it becomes loose it will scatch the finish of the guitar. The sticky strip that holds the magnet doesn't work well when stuck to the fuzzy material inside the case. There is very little room to move it within the case because the guitar fits so tightly inside the case which limits where I can put it inside the case. I'm going to give this about another week or so and then go with the OH-2 which fits inside the sound hole of the instrument and hope it's more effective.

this hygrometer is incredibly easy to use, you could teach a 4th grader how to use it in less than 2 minutes probably. there's vids on youtube on how to use it. thats how i learned how to use mine ensuring that i was using it properly. for people like me who live in one of the least humid places in the states- el paso, texas- lack of humidity is a real concern. i bought my 2005 gibson j-200 classic western to el paso and for the first few months i didn't use a hygrometer and started noticed very fine changes in the way the guitar was sounding. this is because the low humidity was effecting the wood of the guitar, which is very responsive to humidity. my first attempt at humidifying my guitar was to cut up a sponge, dampen it, and insert it into the sound-hole between the strings. this in fact does humidify the guitar but the sponge dries out completely after a day and you have to re-dampen it. there's other "poor man" ways to humidify your guitar but the ones that i personally seen don't target the sound-hole as much as the oasis oh-6 product. the other humidifier that guitar center offered me was made by planet waves and it was nothing more than that- a sponge in small plastic casing. i would not recommend buying that product. the oasis oh-6 will last much longer and you may have to refill it about every week. personally i refill mine about every 3 or 4 days as i've found out that the humidity in my room was around mid-20%! i was surprised that my local guitar center looked at me weird when i asked if they had a hygrometer. being that humidity is an issue here, i would've thought they would know exactly what i was talking about immediately. they didn't have this product in stock, an the other humidifiers they carry, personally, look cheap to me. but they were very helpful to get the order placed for me and it was delivered promptly in a week's time.

My semi-hollow body electric guitar is now safe. Humidity in my house was 30% but the humidity in the case with this system became 49% in 4 days. The hygrometer is very secure inside the dome part of the case. The humidifier is also securely attached to the dome close to the box. The magnet is amazingly strong. (Having a disastrous cracking of the face and back of my classical guitar in the past, I am VERY concerned about humidity!) Now I can worry about my minor scales, not my guitar!
