Great video, I live in South Florida and humidity is very high but playing the violins often help to keep the good tone...can't wait for next Friday Video....
Thank you! Mr. Russ! I put pieces of clementine tangerine in my cases. I used to put tangerine peels directly into my f holes but then I saw some mold so I quit doing that. I honestly think humidifier this way is superior to the damp it tubes. Sometimes but not always the tone improves. My real reason for doing this is my grandfather had two violins one had cracked at the e side f hole on down to the tail end the other he gave to me without any plate cracks just glue cracks around c bouts. I thank you for your diligent coverage of this humidity topic. Hopefully both my violins will stay solid throughout the rest of my life with minimal care. Happy fiddling!
Hello Edgar thank you for your videos. Im an amateur violinist and I enjoy watching every one of your videos. One day I'll come and visit your shop in Cremona
Edgar, in the guitar world we use Boveda or Integra 2-way humidity packs inside our cases. I suppose the paper towel and water trick is the closest thing to it. Cheers from Toronto 🍺🇨🇦🇮🇹
I live in a very humid country. Could you make a video what we should do to our violin? Can a violin adjust to the new climate eventually? How to make it happen? etc... etc.... I never see a video about violin maintenance in a humid region.
Thank you edgar... I live in a cold desert... Valuable info.

I live in Florida, USA, where it’s very humid. When I need to travel to where it’s arid, I place a small orange in my instrument cases.

What to do when room has 75% humidity in summer? Can there be put inside violin case some dehumidifier?
You have superb content; I learn something from each video! Cheers from Oregon!
That’s how it should be!
Thank you very much
All the best

What about using 2-WAY HUMIDITY CONTROL products such as Boveda?
you are the best
Thank you so much!
Should I loosen the strings on my cello before I put it away?
1 word : Boveda.
Sir. Many wrinkles are starting to form on the varnish of my master violin. Why?

Good video but too many cuts! Maybe just relax
Video looks fine
