Now, if you know that you'll be putting up an instrument for many months or years, I'd advise you to slacken the strings and the truss rod. And, if you've got an older instrument with a 'weaker' truss rod, or an instrument without an adjustable rod, you should slacken strings for longer-term storage.
read lessYes, you should loosen your guitar strings one or two half steps before storing it for longer than a month, or if you're storing it long-term. Loosen the strings using the tuning keys to reduce stress on the neck and body top, and to prevent neck warpage or body top bulging. However, you should keep some tension on the neck, as having no tension at all can cause problems.
