Any musical instrument can be damaged by improper care and use. Frequent use of musical instruments keeps the instruments in a good vibration state, which is conducive to further coordination between the various structures of the musical instruments.

There are no special requirements for the temperature in the occasion where the pipa is used, mainly because the humidity environment has a great influence. Under normal circumstances, using the lute in a space with a relative humidity of 30-60% is more beneficial to the vibration and pronunciation of the instrument (beyond this humidity range, it cannot be left naked indoors for a long time, and should be placed in the piano bag after use).

Humidity lower than 30% will cause cracking of the back panel and panel, while humidity greater than 60% will easily cause the panel to absorb moisture, resulting in dull sound, shorter aftertaste, and dull tone. In addition, direct sunlight should be avoided, and the strings should be relaxed when not in use for a long time to prevent the pressure of the panel from the strings, so as to avoid degumming.

As a wooden instrument, the maintenance of the pipa is the same as that of others. Avoid hot and cold, keep it dry, and try to avoid being close to the heater when using it in the north. In the case of using an air conditioner, avoid cold wind blowing directly. If you don't play for a long time, you need to take it out for ventilation. Any instrument will have an adaptive function with the surrounding environment.
