Warning about carbon fiber guitar care
Although your RainSong guitar is considerably more stable and durable than conventional wooden instruments, it does require care. Exposing the instrument to high temperatures or substantial impacts will damage it. In the case of Projection Series instruments, sudden and extreme changes in temperature or humidity can damage the guitar.
