Over time a lack of humidty or too much humidity can take its toll on the wood of your guitars.  Wood moves with age and humidity is a big factor. Even the solidbodies you have.  Usually a range of 45-55% humidity is recommended and a temp of 70 degrees +or- a couple.\r\n\r\nJust make sure it doesn't get too dry in winter or too humid in summer as hanging them makes them more prone to change.
