Dave4Guild Care and feeding of a guitar (24) RE: Care and feeding of a guitar 05 Dec 04


A tip I heard years ago was to leave the guitar on a stand near to your Hi-Fi speakers so that when the music is playing the guitar gently vibrates and helps to mature the sound. I did this for my now 30year old Guild D55 and it sounds wonderful, but how much of this is due to leaving it near speakers I don't know!
While it is out on a stand it will be played more often which is a good thing and I rarely leave guitars in cases except during transit, but of course there are no kids, dogs or other dangers around - when my grandchildren come to visit the instruments are promptly put away safely.

Just love it and talk nicely to it and you won't go far wrong!
