Humidifiers

Image of DampitsA "Dampit" humidifier stores moisture and releases it gradually. It helps to maintain a more stable humidity level in the body of a wooden instrument, as well as keeping cork- and leather pads more resilient. Essential in regions with dry climates, but useful elsewhere during periods of low humidity. Directions for use are included.
