Will a sheet placed over it all keep the gear safe? Thanks! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

I work in construction , and from my experience water will eventually ruin whatever it touches it might not be much, it might not at all, but I would be safe and distance them the best i can You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Room has enough of air to balance things out. In general, placing any kind of gear in the path of Sunlight (even reflected one), near artificial sources of heat, or in the path of a AC device is not a smart thing to do.

I keep my guitar in it's case when I don't use it, tho. So it shouldn't be much of a problem. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

My room is small and I try to keep the door open with this vaporizer in here during the night if I run it. I have my gear covered with a sheet as well just to be safe. The gear and vaporizer are a pretty good distance....like I said, my room is small. If anyone has any additional things to say, please say so! Many opinions are great!

You are dealing with wood, under tension. Also you live in Arkansas. I am not sure how humid Arkansas is in the Spring, but I know Mississippi is humid, and you are close. I would not push it with more humidity. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
