Location: Jet City | after measuring some I've decided that ripping out existing wallhangers, buying the new ones, then installing them at 10" intervals would only gain me enough space for 3 more on the wall.
It's probably better this way, running out of room. |

Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | Say Damon, if you're willing to start from scratch, you have the room for many more, but you need a master plan rather than just adding on and squeezing stuff in as it arrives. I learned this the hard way. Bandrooms can be living works of art. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I made the mistake of assembling a weight machine in the basement, before I made it into my "music room". It would be worse than moving a grand piano, so it will stay where it is when the house gets sold. Takes up a lot of room that could be used for guitars and I use it about as much as some of the guitars. I don't have any other room with as much available wallspace, though.
Dave has a walkin closet with hangers spaced so that he can put them upper or lower. That might be the most efficient use of space. |

If you're running out of room, send the CEO or the 000-17S to me. :D |

Location: Jet City | Brad, I still need to come out your way to see that famous music room. I trust your carpet is drool resistant? |

Location: Phoenix AZ | Btw, an advantage of wall hangers is that you only have a certain number and that sort of forces you into the "one in - one out" routine. In the grand scheme of things (think "swmbo") this is a good thing. If you store them in cases, well there's no stopping you from just keeping the pile growing, and growing, and growning ...
I heard a TRUE story about a certain person who sold his personal favorite cutaway Adamas I. While searching through his stash of guitars to find something else to play in its place he found ANOTHER of the same damn guitar, same color, same everything, that he didn't even know he HAD !!! And this person was NOT ME.

Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | Great story, Dave. Cables and patch cords, likely. Wrenches and tools, maybe. A guitar? Never. |
