STRETTO HUMIDIFIER IN BLACK FORVIOLIN/VIOLA/CELLO
The Stretto Violin Humidifier has become the string players dream come true!!! A humidifier helps prevent cracks, will produce a more consistent performance because the wood is at ideal humidity levels, and the bow hair will not dry and shrink (causing higher tension risking warpage or even tip breaks). Stretto is made in Switzerland. The device is simply the most effective system for maintaining a safe and consistent humidity level inside your case. The Stretto bag effectively humidifies for up to two weeks. When ready to rehydrate the bag, simply re-soak in water (use distilled water for best results).
Cyrus Forough, Concert Artist, Professor of Violin , Carnegie Mellon University says about the Stretto: “As in all museums protecting great works of art, the humidity must be equalized for the preservation of such masterpieces. All instruments require similar protection, regardless of their age, we owe it to our precious investment. I heartily recommend the Stretto.”
