I am about to restring a guitar for the first time in 20 or so years. I haven't played in more than 15 years, as stated on my first thread, so I'm asking how long can all 6 or 12 strings be left off before neck tension becomes an issue? I want to clean the instrument, do some internal inspection and oil the fingerboard before putting the strings on.
I plan to restring my1978 Guild (G) D312SB once I get it from my son who has stored it for me for 15 years. I would imagine that the time for strings off would be less for the 12?
Before posting this I searched and read a lot of history on restringing and could not find an answer to my question(s).
