Bromo Acoustic Guitar Care & Maintenance
Protecting Your Investment Through Proper Humidity Control
Proper Humidity: The Foundation of Guitar Health
Your Bromo acoustic guitar’s wood is alive—it expands and contracts with changes in humidity. To ensure your instrument retains its tone, structural integrity, and beauty, maintain a relative humidity level of approximately 45% to 55%.
Key Steps to Achieving Ideal Humidity Levels:
Use a Specialized Humidifier
Invest in a soundhole or case humidifier designed specifically for acoustic guitars. These devices release controlled moisture, preventing wood from drying out or cracking.
Store in a Quality Case
When not in use, keep your Bromo guitar in a hardshell case. Storing it in a case with a humidifier helps maintain a stable environment, shielding it from fluctuating indoor conditions.
Monitor with a Hygrometer
Place a digital hygrometer inside the case to accurately track humidity levels. Adjust your humidifier’s moisture output as needed to keep levels steady and safe.
Seasonal Adjustments
Cold, dry winter air often requires more frequent humidification. In warmer or more humid seasons, you may need less moisture to keep your Bromo guitar stable.
Additional Care Tips
Cleaning
After each playing session, gently wipe the guitar’s finish and strings with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove oils, dust, and sweat.
String Maintenance
Regular string changes help preserve tone and playability. Strings should be changed on average every 100 hours. Refer to the proper gauges for your model on the Bromo webite.
Professional Check-Ups
Consider scheduling periodic inspections with a qualified technician or luthier. A professional setup every 6-12 months ensures your Bromo acoustic guitar remains in top playing condition.
Our acoustic guitars are expertly crafted using select tonewoods sourced from sustainable forests.

By diligently controlling humidity and adhering to these guidelines, you’ll ensure your Bromo acoustic guitar remains a cherished, heirloom-quality instrument—ready to deliver rich, vibrant sound whenever you play.
