Some zheng friends are more careless about guzheng, and they are usually placed and treated like furniture, and some people think that guzheng is too fragile and are always cautious. In fact, as long as you have some basic understanding of the guzheng, the storage and maintenance of the guzheng is actually quite simple.

Arranging and Preserving the Guzheng

Whether it is any kind of musical instrument, if it is improperly handled and placed during storage and use, it will damage the service life of the musical instrument, especially the guzheng. Only by using the instrument frequently and keeping the instrument in good condition will help to become more harmonious between the various parts of the instrument. (Especially for the new guzheng, the feel and tone will become better only when played frequently)

The preservation of guzheng is not restricted by temperature, but its wooden structure has great requirements on humidity, and the specific value is between 50% and 70%. If it is lower than 50%, the guzheng will have the risk of cracking; if it is higher than 70%, the panel will absorb moisture, which will make the sound dull and hoarse and the reverberation time will be shortened.

①After playing the guzheng, it is best to cover it with a cover.

②The guzheng should be placed in places where people often move around as much as possible.

③If you don't play for a long time, it is better to put the piano case in the piano case.
