  • Oasis® OH-18 Ukulele Humidifier

    Oasis® OH-18 Ukulele Humidifier

    $25.95

    We met Fred Kamaka Jr. of Kamaka Ukulele at the 2007 NAMM show in Anaheim. The air at the show was very dry and he was concerned about his ukuleles developing cracks. At the time, we only had the OH-1 guitar humidifier to offer him, so that is what he used at the show to protect his ukuleles. Fred made it very clear that we needed to come up with a humidifier specifically designed for the ukulele. In response, we developed the OH-18 ukulele humidifier. It is the same size as the OH-1 humidifier, but has a special hanger which allows the humidifier to hang at an angle from the strings inside the ukulele soundhole. Because the ukulele is a smaller instrument, it needs less supplemental humidification than a guitar. The humidity reduction was accomplished by modifying the liner for the OH-18 ukulele humidifier. The OH-18 ukulele humidifier comes with the special ukulele stabilizer and a 10 cc syringe for increased distilled water filling control.

    Because tap and bottled water have dissolved minerals that can clog the liner, distilled water is recommended to extend the useful life of your humidifier.

  • Oasis® OH-26 Mandolin Humidifier

    Oasis® OH-26 Mandolin Humidifier

    $27.95

    The OH-26 Mandolin Humidifier is a modified version of our OH-6 Case Humidifier. It is shorter than the OH-6, so it can stand upright in a lower depth mandolin case. It comes with a shorter clip than the OH-6 to fit the reduced depth of the mandolin case. The clip also has a wider top so it can span the side of a thicker plush case. The humidity output is reduced from that of the OH-6 because the area to be humidified is smaller. The OH-26 holds about 1/3rd less water than the OH-6 and only takes two syringes to fill it the first time. The OH-26 will only fit cases where there is an open area for the humidifier to fit (F style). It will not fit a case where the body of the mandolin is completely form fitted to the case on all sides (A style). A stainless steel strip with two sided tape and a 10 cc syringe are also included with the OH-26 Mandolin Humidifer.
    Because tap and bottled water have dissolved minerals that can clog the liner, distilled water is recommended to extend the useful life of your humidifier.

  • Oasis®  OH-14 Case Plus+ Humidifier

    Oasis® OH-14 Case Plus+ Humidifier

    $26.95

    The OH-14 Case Plus+ Humidifier uses the same evaporative membrane as the OH-5 Plus+ Humidifier, providing 50% more daily humidity than either the OH-6 Case Humidifier or the OH-1 Guitar Humidifier. This humidifier is designed for use in drier climates (desert, mountain or frigid north) where the relative humidity is below 25%. The OH-14 Case Plus+ Humidifier, like the OH-6 Case Humidifier, attaches to the inside of your instrument case. To accomplish this, two powerful neodymium magnets are inserted in the seam of the humidifier. The magnets attach to either a steel clip or a stainless steel strip with adhesive backing (both are provided with the humidifier). The steel clip fits over the side of your case, providing a flat vertical surface to which the magnets can adhere. The neodymium magnets are strong enough to keep the humidifier attached to the clip or strip, but still allow the user to remove the humidifier with ease.

    The OH-14 Case Plus+ humidifier can be used to humidify the headstock of a guitar by attaching the clip over the backside of the case. The humidifier can also be used in stringed instrument cases such as violin, viola or cello by attaching the stainless steel strip to the inside of the instrument case with the double sided tape. The steel clip and strip give the user a wide variety of ways to attach the humidifier to the case. Like all of our humidifiers, we provide a 10 cc syringe for distilled water filling control.

    Because tap and bottled water have dissolved minerals that can clog the liner, distilled water is recommended to extend the useful life of your humidifier.

  • Oasis ® OH-5 Plus+ Guitar Humidifier

    Oasis ® OH-5 Plus+ Guitar Humidifier

    $25.95

    While the original Blue Oasis® provides sufficient humidity in many environments, it is not effective everywhere. The humidity demands of the desert, mountain states or frigid north exceed the humidification capacity of the OH-1. For this reason, we have developed the OH-5 Plus+ humidifier. The OH-5 Plus+ is the same size and shape as the original blue Oasis®, but is has a different liner which provides 50% more humidity output. Because the OH-5 Plus+ is the same size as the original Blue Oasis® and it has 50% greater humidity output, it will be necessary to refill the Oasis® OH-5 Plus+ more frequently than the original Blue Oasis®. Use the OH-5 when the environment outside the case has a relative humidity of 25% or less. Each OH-5 comes with a stabilizer bar for mounting the OH-5 humidifier and a 10 cc syringe for distilled water filling control.
    Because tap and bottled water have dissolved minerals that can clog the liner, distilled water is recommended to extend the useful life of your humidifier.

  • Oasis ®OH-6 Case Humidifier

    Oasis ®OH-6 Case Humidifier

    $26.95

    The huge success of our original blue Oasis® “sound-hole” Guitar Humidifier brought numerous inquiries about how to provide humidification for other wooden instruments such as violins, violas, cellos, jazz guitars, and some woodwind instruments like clarinets and oboes. After careful consideration and research, we developed the OH-6 Case Humidifier. This style of Oasis® humidifier attaches to the inside of your instrument case. To accomplish this, two powerful neodymium magnets are inserted in the seam of the humidifier. The magnets attach to either a steel clip or a stainless steel strip with adhesive backing (both are provided with the humidifier). The steel clip fits over the side of your case, providing a flat vertical surface to which the magnets can adhere. The neodymium magnets are strong enough to keep the humidifier attached to the clip or strip, but still allow the user to remove the humidifier with ease.

  • Oasis® OH-20 Guitar Hygrometer Holder

    Oasis® OH-20 Guitar Hygrometer Holder

    $12.95

    We created the Oasis® OH-20 Hygrometer Holder to enable you to measure the humidity at the body of your guitar without risk of scratching the soundboard. The soundboard and body of the guitar are where cracking from dryness is most likely to occur. The Oasis® Guitar Hygrometer Holder allows you to place the hygrometer by the sound hole of your guitar near the humidifier when the guitar is in the case.

    How does it work? Made from a soft loop Velcro type of material, it wraps around the first string and provides a flat surface where the hygrometer can be attached. An adhesive backed piece of hooked Velcro type material is attached to the back of the hygrometer.

  • OH-4 Humigel™ Replacement Kit

    OH-4 Humigel™ Replacement Kit

    $12.95

    READ THESE IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE FILLING HUMIDIFIERS
    The OH-4 Humigel Replacement Kit is of critical importance for the successful use of our humidifiers. The ONLY reason for the use of the crystals is to reduce the risk of damage to your instrument from potential leaks. Humigel™ crystals are very hygroscopic and hold up to 400 times their weight in water. We add .6 cc’s of crystals prior to packaging. This is such a small quantity that you can barely see them at the bottom of the humidifier. The best way to tell if they are present is to shake the humidifier and hear them rattle around. .6 cc’s is the amount needed to turn the water into jelly. Unlike water, the jelly is semi-solid and will contain the water should the humidifier become damaged. With the crystals present, a damaged humidifier will become damp or have water spots but will not leak into your instrument.

    More than .6 cc’s of Humigel crystals will reduce the ability of the humidifier to function. When there are too many crystals, the water stays suspended in the crystals, and will not evaporate through the fabric of the humidifier, and cannot humidify your instrument. After initially filling your humidifier with distilled water wait 10 minutes. When you look into the humidifier, it should look like clear small curd cottage cheese. If it doesn’t look this way, and you have standing water, you need to get a OH-4 Humigel™ Replacement Kit and replace the crystals. Each kit holds 5-6 refills. As long as you reseal the small zip lock bag inside the kit and leave the desiccant bag in place, the kit will last a long time. Without resealing and the desiccant bag, the crystals cake up with water absorbed from the air.

    Most instruments only need seasonal humidification. Typically, the humidity drops in the fall and rises in the spring. When the spring arrives, we recommend that you remove the humidifier, wash all of the crystals out, and leave the cap loosely on the humidifier. If you do not remove the crystals and loosen the cap, the humidifier will shrink up, dry up and the crystals will stick together. In the fall, it is easy to damage the lining of the humidifier when trying to restore it to shape. The lining is only 1/1000th of an inch thick and can be damaged easily if it sticks to itself and the crystals, when the humidifier shrinks up and dries up if the lid is left on tight.

  • OH-28 & OH-29 Guitar Supports

    OH-28 & OH-29 Guitar Supports

    $47.95

    The OH-28 (large) & OH-29 (small) guitar supports are designed to replace the traditional footstool, allowing guitarists to sit more comfortably and in proper balance, while playing. The supports assist players in maintaining good posture while seated, reducing the muscle stress and fatigue and allowing more freedom of movement.

    The OH-28 & OH-29 rest on your thigh rather than attach to your guitar, so there is no way for the supports to damage the finish of your guitar.

    Choosing the correct support cushion
    The large support raises the height of the guitar by approximately 5.5″. The small support raises the height of the guitar by about 4″. The correct size is determined by your body size and the height of your foot rest. In general, taller people would use the larger rest. Players who keep their foot rest in a lower position would use the smaller support.
