Wall mounts?

[Phrat]

I am currently decorating a study/music room and i want to display my balls on the wall. Does anyone have any hints/tips and recommendations for wallhangers?

I use String Swing wall hangers.

I've been using these for years and I've never had an issue. Thay also have a great wood finish. I have about 8 of them. Nice and sturdy.

I use the Hercules that grab the neck - screwed straight into the studs

I used the Hercules grabs, and they work great.

mbgreene, killer silo!

sorry, don't use wall mounts.

How about those angled, diagonal ones? I love the look of those!

I also like the Hercules hangers....got 5 of 'em, and need a couple more. Sorry, no Balls though.

Don't use these:

They are great, but not for Balls. I bought several before I got my first EBMM, and while they work great for the guitars I don't play anymore , they don't work with the EBMM headstock. The back of the hanger hits the tuning locks so the guitar doesn't sit right.

When I redo my walls, I'm going to get the hercules hangers.

Hercules Hangers are great. Once this darn house sells the new music room is going to have them.

+1 on the hercules ones.

they even got the long ones which you can angle.. in case your space is limited and your guittars plentiful. might fit 6 in the space you normally get 2

I saw some cool ones advertised in a magazine reciently that looked like a hand! Not sure if they are any good though!

Another +1 on the Hercules. We finally put ours up at the weekend:

and they're perfect! Can't recommend them enough

Here's how they look on my wall.

I really want to do this with mine, but the damn kids are still too young.

Do you guys put anything on the back of the wall to the guitar from hitting the wall or are you just super super careful? I would hate to walk past my Luke and bump into it by accident and see it bounce off the drywall.

The guitar actually hangs out from the wall a pretty good distance, of course, being careful is good too, that's why mine are hung fairly high. I just hope there's never an earthquake!

Don't have to worry about that in Illinois

Well, so far anyway.

Ok, the hercules ones seem to be the weapon of choice and i like the ones with the wooden block as well, look a bit tidier than the metal plate ones.

I was planning on putting a square of high density foam on the wall behind where the guitar could potentially hit the wall if someone gets a bit overzelous poking the flame on my axis thinking its actually water
