Out of curiosity how do you guys store your guitars. I'm just trying to find different\cool ways to store or display my guitars and I know some people here have found or built ingenious ways to store\display guitars and amps and also save space. So lets hear and see what you guys have done.

I fill my bathtub with ice cold water and store them in it so they can stay cool and hydrated.

Hello Bryan , I know you do I've been to your house .

I saw one guy on Pinterest he made drawers and put his guitars in and another one made slots with a shelf on top and the cases first in the slots. I'm just trying to get more space in my house too many guitar cases everywhere and unfortunately I don't have the wall space to put too many guitars on the wall.

I have had good luck with floor stands... Well, until Cooper turned 2 and became obsessed with my ''tars"
 
I've got most of them out on multi-stands (the kind where the bodies are physically separated so they won't bang together) so I can grab and play without anything getting in the way :)
 
In my house, the air has the perfect level of humidity and the temperature is perfectly constant.
Thus, if you want to preserve your EBMM guitars, just send me your guitars, I will take care of them ! (and you will gain a lot of space in your house).
 
I hang mine. Depending on the situation I use the String Swing 5 Guitar Hangers or the Hercules guitar hangers. The former makes better use of space but the latter places them right against the wall.

When they are not on the wall they are in their cases.
 
I put mine on the wall or a floor stand depending on what I am doing
 
We just keep the house littered with them for easy access...

Balls everywhere, that's the way to do it....:D
 
I wish I could just leave mine on a stand or on the wall, because I love looking at it, but it spends most its time in the case. My strings get pretty janky if its left out. :( I'd love to get a glass display case or something made so I can always see it!

In their cases when not in use. The lack of humidity here in Utah can seriously mess up a guitar. I've seen literally scores of guitars over the years around here that are all jacked up from fret sprout or the top sinking in on acoustics. Necks get all kinds of bows and humps. Humidifiers are friends.
 
In the case when not in use .... having just recently brought one of my Super Sports back into the regular rotation after an extended absence, nothing to worry about ...... :)

cheers always
