I think 35% should be ok, I kept my old room at my last place at 35% just because that was as humid as it would get with the furnace going. I got an ol 32 gibson acoustic (ll-00) that is on its last leg, it survived the 35% so i imagine just about anything can. the thickness of the finish is always somthing to keep in mind, but on acoustics, the inside is usually never finished so even if you got a thick finish, look in the sound hole to check if the inside has been treated. 9 times out of 10 it wont be, there for for acoustics you always need to take the precaution of humidity.
