A handmade guitar requires special attention. It is important to be a careful when handling a musical instrument.

Here are a few guidelines based on our observations:

Teach your child how to respect the guitar and how to walk and sit with it
When opening the case, set the case flat on the floor
With a young child, it’s best to have the parent take the guitar out and put back in the case
Do not let your child sit or stand on the guitar OR on the case with the guitar inside
Keep your guitar in the case when not in use
Make sure the case is latched before you pick it up
Don’t leave it on the guitar stand when not practicing
Don’t hang it on the wall
Do not sit on the case or put heavy objects on it
Don’t leave it in your car
Avoid extreme hot/cold temperatures
Keep the guitar away from heat vents and out of sunlight
In warm weather, keep it away from air conditioning vents
Do not keep it in your car in hot weather
When traveling or shipping, loosen the strings
When the furnace comes on in cold weather, put a humidifier in the guitar.
