So I'm in the middle of getting ready to move from Baltimore Maryland to Minneapolis, and I have been waiting to get my both my Baritone HH and SG Classic set up after I make the move. But since I've heard that it takes guitars time to acclimatize after a move to a new area how long should I wait a bit before I take them in to be set up after I move?
Also anyone happen to be in the Minneapolis area that can recommend a good guitar guy?
Thanks,

Re: Guitars and climate (Moving to Minneapolis)
Yes!
Depends on what you want. Do you want the best guy at the "best" vintage guitar shop in town(s), or do you want a solid guy at a cheap price?
Also, what is bringing you to the TC?

Re: Guitars and climate (Moving to Minneapolis)
Well at this point both my guitars are fairly new so I should probably go with the solid yet cheap guy, also I'm just playing for fun and not profit at the moment hehe.
Assuming everything goes to plan (and it's all happening last minute of course) I'll be teaching web design up there at a college/trade school kind of thing. I'm really looking forward to it. I'm originally from Michigan so I can't wait to get back to a cooler climate. And I've heard that the Twin Cities is a great place to live.
Thanks for the Info

Re: Guitars and climate (Moving to Minneapolis)
I grew up in Minneapolis. I love that town. It has a lot to offer just about any one.
although on topic, i really don't know much about acclimating and setting up guitars, but i dont think it will take long for a guitar to get used to the environment.

A solidbody will only take an hour or so, an acoustic longer.
I lived in the Twin Cities for over a decade and loved it! It's a great place to live.

Re: Guitars and climate (Moving to Minneapolis)
I keep hearing that from people that have lived there or live there now. I need a change of pace and no offense to anyone living in Baltimore but I'm so ready to not be here anymore hehe. Of all the places I've lived, Baltimore is probably my least favorite.Maggieo wrote:I lived in the Twin Cities for over a decade and loved it! It's a great place to live.

So were there any recommendations for not too expensive but reliable guitar guys in Minneapolis.
