Information

DETAILS:

USE A LARGE STARTER KIT FOR A(N): 

  • Guitar
  • Bass Guitar
  • Banjo
  • Cello
  • Double/Upright Bass
  • Bass Clarinet
  • Bassoon
  • Large Wooden Instrument

EACH LARGE KIT INCLUDES:

  • One (1) Double (2-Pouch) Boveda Holder
  • One (1) Single (1-Pouch) Boveda Holder
  • Three (3) Boveda Refill Packets
  • Step-by-Step Instructions

HOW TO USE:

BEFORE USING BOVEDA:

  • ALWAYS insert Boveda into a holder before using in your instrument case. The holder acts as a liquid barrier if a packet is accidentally punctured and extends the life of your Boveda packets. The patented interior material allows water vapor to pass through to your instrument. The exterior is soft, like a polishing cloth, so it doesn’t scratch your instrument. 
  • DO NOT mix different Boveda RH levels including Boveda B49HA within the same instrument case.  
  • DO NOT use other humidification products with Boveda in the same case because they will fight against each other and reduce the efficiency of Boveda.


STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Remove the clear overwrap from the packet. (DO NOT OPEN the Boveda itself.)
  2. Insert one (1) unwrapped Boveda into each pouch of each holder.
  3. Place in the case anywhere that allows for airflow and prevents puncture when you close the case.
  4. Close the case's lid. Always keep your instrument case closed when using Boveda.


PLACEMENT IDEAS:

Double holder:

  • Into the sound hole
  • Over the strings
  • ­Open area in the case


Single holder:

  • Under the neck or headstock
  • On the strings
  • Under the tailpiece
  • Open area in the case

PACKAGING:

    Held well for a year

    Just bought another of these kits. The previous one kept my 7/8 Chinese-made cello in perfect shape while stored in a hard case in a 50-degree room in Maine, for a winter and spring-8 months. When I took it out, it sounded wonderful and was easy to tune. This in spite of fluctuating humidity and slightly uneven temperatures in the space. I’m a Boveda believer and have just bought another kit for the cello I store in the Bay Area the rest of the year. It’s a pesky problem,now resolved.

    The only product I trust

    This is the only product that works for my acoustic guitars in Hawaii, 49HA, and I have tried them all. Highly effective in protecting my instruments exposed to high humidity. Thank you Boveda!
