These packets are for 49% relative humidity, size 70. Cellos, due to their size, require 4 packets to properly manage humidity in your case, which should be kept closed. As long as you already have the soft pouch from your starter kit, you just need one set of 4 to keep your Boveda going for another 2-6 months. Life of the product varies because conditions vary. Contents of packet are natural salts and pure water. When your existing packets have gotten rigid — and you should note an increase in the size — it’s time to replace them. Packets in their sealed plastic have a shelf life of two years. A short video https://bovedainc.com/question/when-do-i-replace-my-instruments-boveda/
The SV bow grip is a soft, pliable rubber that slides (more like putting on a wet bathing suit) from the screw end over frog to help protect the stick from wear, and provide a very comfortable place for your thumb. You can still maneuver the bow with your fingers, and your thumb is not locked in one position, though it is oriented well and cannot poke through. A very popular item here. *Note: If the thumbnail is not kept short, you can wear through the rubber quickly. Also, repeated installation and removal, or rolling the rubber back on itself can lead to material failure.
Bow sleeves are lined silk acetate with a velcro closure at the end, cord to tie, and C2G monogram in the same color thread as the silk so it’s branded invisibly. The black paisley is 33″ long, the blue pinstripe is 31.5″.
Peg Compound may help if you have friction pegs that stick or slip. It is easy to use, comes in a swivel-up tube like Chapstick. Remove your peg, clean off whatever residue may be on it, and apply just in a thin band where the peg contacts the wood in the peg box. Reinsert the peg and rewind string. A longer-term solution is Pegheds geared pegs if you can make the investment
