Things people know:-
Guitars are made almost entirely from wood.
Wood is a natural product that can warp/twist/swell/contract depending on the enviroment it is kept in.

Things people don’t know:-
Guitars tend to like a RH (Relative Humidity) around 50%.
Humidity in the UK generally sits above the ideal humidity for guitars, and it also varies all the time.

Things that happen to a lot of guitars in the UK as a result:-
They slowly change, and over time they don’t play as nicely as they did when they were new; they often sound a little duller, and the action may have risen. As a result many players keep constantly sending them in for a ‘set-up’ when in fact all that can be avoided by considering how you store it.
