## Description

Love Your Instrument—for effortless humidity protection, use Boveda. Having been in the industry for 25 years, Boveda is a trusted and experienced brand in relative humidity control. But what does that even mean? Relative humidity (RH) refers to the percentage of humidity within an environment. In other words, it answers the question, 'how moist or dry is the air in my instrument case?' Boveda's founders & scientists discovered that the right RH has a huge impact on a wood instrument's performance & sound & safeguarding its construction. Using Boveda, you'll maintain a precise moisture level between 45 and 55% RH—no more mustiness in your instrument case. Just slip a Boveda into a Fabric Holder (available separately), position it in your case & forget about the pack until it starts to get hard. Once it does, just switch it out with a replacement pack. (This multi-pack of Boveda 49 RH Standard contains 12 individually wrapped replacement humidity control packs.) Each pack can last you up to 6 months. Its lifespan depends on how often you open your case, how airtight your case is, & how dry or humid the climate you live in is. USE BOVEDA 49% RH STANDARD HUMIDIFIER/DEHUMIDIFIER PACKS in an instrument case to maintain the right humidity for: GUITARS, including acoustic, electric, electric bass, guitarrón, hollow-body, nylon string & semi-hollow body; FRETTED INSTUMENTS, including banjo, mandolin & ukulele; STRINGS, including cello/violoncello, double bass/upright bass, hollow-body bass, viola & violin; & WOODWINDS, including bass clarinet, bassoon, clarinet & oboe. Subscribe & Save to get Boveda replacement packs sent to you automatically. Proudly Made in the U.S.A.

## Features

- WHY THIS BOVEDA: 12 STANDARD REPLACEMENT PACKS FOR BOVEDA STARTER KITS—SMALL, LARGE & DIRECTIONAL & TO FILL BOVEDA SINGLE & DOUBLE FABRIC HOLDERS. Protects fretted, bowed & woodwind instruments from humidity fluctuations. Maintains the ideal humidity level in an instrument case. NATURAL INGREDIENTS. Trusted by over 3 million people to protect & maintain items at the perfect humidity level. WE GUARANTEE QUALITY! If you’re not 100% satisfied, reach out for a full refund for up to 1 year.
- HOW BOVEDA WORKS FOR MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS: Boveda 49% RH protects wood instruments & their accessories by stabilizing the humidity within the ideal range—45–55% RH. If the air inside a case is too moist, Boveda absorbs that moisture. If it's too dry, Boveda releases small amounts of water vapor into the case. Wide humidity fluctuations will cause the wood to expand or shrink, which puts stress on the instrument & degrades its performance abilities.
- CHOOSE BOVEDA: Boveda's the only patented 2-way humidity control solution with 25 years of experience. Using saltwater in our humidity packs, we provide the fastest, most precise humidity control in the market for wood instruments. When you invest in an instrument, you want to ensure you take care of it to produce optimal sound. Boveda is the only humidity solution that can do so within 24-48 hours.
- HOW TO USE: Always insert Boveda packs into a protective Boveda Fabric Holder before using in an instrument case. Boveda Fabric Holders are available separately & in Boveda Starter Kits. Remove the clear plastic overwrap before using. DO NOT cut or open the brown humidity packet. Slip the packet(s) into the holder(s). Place in case and close the lid. BOVEDA DOES THE REST. Replace every 3 months. Swap out Boveda when it becomes hard & crunchy. NEVER MIX the 49% with any other %RH.
- WHO IS BOVEDA FOR: Boveda 49% RH is for acoustic & electric GUITAR players & musicians who play WOODWINDS & BOWED INSTRUMENTS. Professional musicians, band & orchestra leaders, instrument techs, music teachers, hobbyists & student musicians use Boveda packs for easy & precise humidity management for instrument storage. NO DAILY MAINTENANCE! Don’t risk damaging an instrument by adding water to sponges and snakes & forgetting to refill them. WHY RISK A WARPED OR CRACKED INSTRUMENT?

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Have high humidity, will the bags still harden after absorbing their maximum amount of ambient water or is there another sign to look for**
A: Hello - 

The Boveda will still remain pliable once they have absorbed all that they can. Typically a high RH is a good indication that they have absorbed all they can.

If you are in an area of 50% + humidity we would recommend switching to our 49% RH High Absorption Boveda. These packs are specifically designed to absorb more moisture in high humidity areas. 

Team Boveda

**Q: For electric guitar can I just use your product in the case on the neck and head of the guitar? Or do I need the PW holders?**
A: Absolutely, if there is no sound hole you can just place the packs wherever they fit in the case. Be careful not to pinch them in the lid when you close the case.

**Q: Hi, I was wondering do these packs just go into the guitar case or guitar directly or do they need to go into a special pouch first?  Thanks.  Lee :)**
A: Hi Lee I put these packs into a pouch that was included into the "Planet Waves Two-Way Humidification System" that I bought years ago and put it directly inside the guitar hole hanging on the two sides of the strings. You can see it at http://www.planetwaves.com/pwProductDetail.Page?ActiveID=4115&productid=523&productname=Two_Way_Humidification_System.Putting it in direct contact of the guitar body is not recommended because the pack might exude in case of extreme humidity variation.

**Q: How do you use these on a hollow body electric guitar with F sound holes.**
A: We are happy to help!  Place the first Boveda 2-way humidity control inside your Fabric Holder and drape it over your strings.  Nestle the second fabric holder under or over the neck to maintain moisture balance near the headstock and fretboard. Avoid placing Boveda where it might be punctured and where there is the greatest opportunity for airflow. Shut the lid and k

great

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Some caution required.
*by G***. on 13 September 2023*

I’ve been using these for at least 20 years with my Archtop Guitars. Do they work ? That’s hard to know as I’m very careful with my instruments, at least whilst we were living in Southern California, where temperature and humidity inside a house were easily controlled. But now we live in the UK and it’s not so easy. I brought 7 guitars with me. One is developing varnish cracking, a Wineburst Citation, (photo before cracking), but it’s a favorite, not always in its case, and on two others the binding is detaching from their pick guards. I have a de-humidifier arriving today so perhaps at least in one room I can drop the humidity from the 70’s and sometimes low 80’s to around 50%. So i’m in the middle of a battle with this UK weather hoping these Boveda Packs are as good as they say in this first real test of their properties… When we lived In the States, a Boveda Pack touching a Citation tuner tarnished the gold down to the base metal. Another pack, resting above the headstock tarnished the tuners on a Super V Prototype, though fortunately most of this was removed by using a jewelers cloth. Occasionally a pack exhibits wet patches. But I will continue using them, we are talking about a period of 20 years, though unfortunately on collectable instruments affecting parts very difficult if not impossible to replace. So my message is, after learning the hard way, be careful about placement. Stay away from contact with metallic parts and open the case at least monthly to verify all is well. I also drop a pack inside my Archtops, but before doing so make sure you have a way to get it out. (This was written before Boveda offered pouches, maybe they are sufficient to protect the guitar from any of the above ). So far no internal electronics have been affected by placing packs inside the guitar and that’s with over 20 years of use. But if you have a collection of guitars and you rotate them out a case pack may not be enough, it’s then best to humidify and temperature control the room itself. This done properly can get very expensive especially if you use multiple rooms. … I should mention; with the varnish cracking on the Citation a well known luthier here in the UK thought Gibson had applied too much lacquer to the guitar, this thickness amplifying any deleterious humidity/temperature condition.
