It is very important to maintain musical instruments in order for them to function correctly. Some musical instruments require quite a significant level of maintenance compared to others, for example pianos, particularly grand pianos will require tuning by a professional at least twice a year and more often if they are used frequently. Stringed musical instruments, such as guitars and violins are prone to going out of tune and will most likely require tuning every time they are played.

Taking good care of musical instruments can increase their lifespan significantly. Keeping musical instruments in a protective case when they’re not being used is a good way to protect them from damage. Also, environmental factors such changes in humidity and temperature can have a significant effect on musical instruments, particularly stringed musical instruments that are prone to going out of tune. Grand pianos are susceptible to damage from environmental factors.

It is also a good idea to wash your hands before playing musical instruments as the oils and acids that naturally occur in the skin can cause damage over the course of time. Cleaning musical instruments will also help to increase their longevity and there are a number of specialist products available for this purpose.
