"WET" guitar problems are chronic and hard to eradicate. A new invention has arrived to deal directly with it. "the KILN" is the world's first guitar dehumidifier that employs 3 key principles of wood drying.

Most guitar lovers simply enjoy playing their guitars without knowing the creeping effects caused by high moisture content in wood. For years there weren't any dedicated solutions. Only limited privileged individuals who can afford up-scaled treatments are immune from it. "the KILN" was invented to faceoff with "WET" guitar issues.

This gadget is now in Indiegogo on a fund raising campaign. Check it out here: http://igg.me/at/the-KILN/x

Yeah....

So, get yourself a sponsorship here on the OLF, and we'll be happy to continue this discussion. However, in general, we have the opposite problem in North America than too much RH. So, if you'd like to plug your product here, by all means, throw your beans in the hat and let's do it!

Seriously though...

I saw your YouTube video posted on the AGF, you seem like a passionate and sincere person.

Nevertheless, high RH is not something much of NA experiences, save perhaps Florida, Miami, New Orleans etc.

School me if I'm wrong, please.

You are right. Only when high RH becomes an issue to acoustic guitars.

FWIW, there's a thread going around on the AGF about your device, you may want to chime in there.

I understand the reason behind getting some attention here. It just sounds too much like an advert though. Create some discussion about it, ask questions, look for ideas. When you just post it like it is, it totally looks like you are putting up a flyer. I am not sure if you have already gotten permission to do so but it would be wise to ask for it.

Only in sub tropic to tropical climates will you have issues with too high of RH, and not even all those places have it either. I have never seen problems with too high of RH but just because I haven't does not mean it does not exist. This product will be unfortunately be constricted to those audiences within that geographical range. Which means, hitting your target market. I recall a post recently from a gentleman in India concerning too low of RH, India! Of all places you would think that India has a very humid climate.

I wish you luck on your product , in my opinion I would keep this product a very small operation. You might get hit hard if you go too big too fast and find the market was smaller than anticipated.
