Check with AL. |

Location: NW NJ | Used String Swings, changed to Hercules - they have a slick mechanism that locks the guitar in so it doesn't fall out ... :( ... which is why I switched - don't ask, it is too painful. |

Location: Madison, Wisconsin | I love the hercules hangers. The only drawback is they don't work well when a capo is on the first or second fret. Not a problem for Al! I know I'm not suposed to leave a capo on but my Martin 12 lives with it's capo on. |

Location: Phoenix AZ | Unfortunately, Hercules suck for ukuleles. I use them (and like them a lot) for guitars. Both wall hangers and floor stands. But for the ukes I have to use the Swing Things because you can bend the arms nice and narrow for the skinny little uke necks. Dave |

Location: Studio City, California, USA | Wow! Thank you very much for the responses. I'm gonna try an Hercules since it looks like it's what's the best out there.
@ Mr Alpep: i am going to try to send you an email to figure out how i can buy stuff from you. Please let me know if you don't get it, because i have sent you a few email regarding that ovation dobro you have on your website without response. I didn't want to bug or anything so i went and baught Stephen T's sknakeskin Thunderbolt.
Thank you very much for the help.
Ced
PS: I haven't slept with a guitar since i got maried, 2 years ago. But i do wake up in the middle of the night from time to time and go spend a few minutes with my ladies while the wife is sleeping. Don't tell her if you ever meet her. ;0) |

Location: North Texas | "I would like to find a good, strong one that's gonna break..ect", said, Ced. I would not recommend a hanger that's gonna break, even if it's a good, strong one. HaHa. You can buy a piece of 1/2" dowel, and a piece of wood, and make one pretty easily, otherwise, probably any commercially availible hanger would suffice. Good Luck, Buck |

Location: Studio City, California, USA | Hello,
Well, i'm lost too. I have a yahoo email address. The regular one, and i don't much about computer if it's not to record music.
@Alpep: Maybe you could PM me, i tried to PM you but, well another computer retarde here, i can't find the PM button to contact you.
So i went on the hercules website and it looks like the one that's good for me is this one:
http://www.herculesstands.com/guitars/GSP39WB.html
I hope the link works.
Please, could you try to email me again at the same address. Or if somebody thinks it's a problem on email address, can you give me a step by step way of resolving it.
Thank you very much

Location: New Orleans | I chose of a couple of String Swings that have the thingys that hold the instrument in place which won't allow a (GOD FORBID) crash to the floor. One's holding up my vintage Ampeg Heavy Stud (real heavy) and after a week of constantly checking on it, it's doing the job fine. Of course, I mounted it into a stud instead of using the anchors. :D Very secure hangers, folks. |
