I too would be interested in the comments from Larrivee. They build in a climate controlled atmosphere of sorts, but I cannot believe that they don't take into account the various conditions that some guitars live in.

There are obviously a lot of climatic changes that can affect a guitar or any wooden instrument. Humidity and temperature both affect woods as everyone knows. But with reasonable precautions, I fail to understand how much different Australia is from parts of North America.

As I am the one who volunteered to eat the Larrivee Parlor (if alison buys one and it falls apart), I look forward to whatever info that might be provided.
