Calton Cases, based in Austin, Texas, reaches out to the wider community for tips on proper instrument care. The company draws on more than 50 years of experience, research and development to offer the best luxury hard case in the industry. Calton Cases prides itself on the fact that every part of a Calton case is designed to keep the instrument safe for a lifetime.
Jeff Poss of Calton Cases says, "Music is an important part of our lives and if you are a musician you probably experience and breathe every instrument you play. Whether you play for fun or make a living, your musical instruments are precious. Like any other good, musical instruments can deteriorate or wear out over time, two problems that taking good care of your equipment can alleviate.
The first tip from Calton Cases is simple: make sure the instrument is clean. A great way to do this is to simply clean the instruments after a few uses. Even if the instruments are not used frequently, cleaning can ensure their longevity. Otherwise, dirt and debris will build up on the instrument, not only making it unsightly or unnatural, but also helping to shorten its lifespan. While the instruments are easy to clean by simply wiping them with a damp cloth, it is advisable to take time to clean them more thoroughly.
The company also suggests storing musical instruments at room temperature. Since most instruments are built with care, even simple variables such as a change in ambient temperature can damage them. As a rule of thumb, all musical instruments should be stored in a dry place. It is advisable to humidify the house when it is very hot, as high temperatures can weaken the wood. Also, heat can melt adhesives on the instrument and even affect the mood. On the other hand, if it's too cold, heat up the house so the wood doesn't swell, warp, or even get covered in mold. If the instrument has been brought to cooler or warmer temperatures indoors, the musician should bring it to room temperature before playing.
Finally, the company suggests always keeping the instrument in your pocket. An openly visible instrument can enrich a living space, but in the long run it is a bad idea. While they can actually improve the attractiveness of a home, the instrument also carries a higher risk of being damaged by nosy guests or even accidents and breakdowns. String instruments in particular are susceptible to such damage. For this reason it is advisable to make sure that the device always stays within its instrument flight case when it is not being played. Also inside the case, make sure that the case is only filled with the instrument intended for it. Since an instrument case is not spacious, the inside of the instrument is unintentionally pressurized by adding additional items to the compartment. If you need extra space to carry items, owners should always purchase a separate bag.
Calton Cases also says that nothing is kept on the instrument, whether it is in the case or not. It is also not a good idea to leave it unattended as it can lead to theft or other accidental damage which can be mitigated by securing the instrument. Finally, Calton Cases points out that repairing an instrument at home is generally not a good idea. So if repair is required, owners should take it to a qualified instrument repair technician.
