Guitar pla

Im going to buy a Glen Burton Alien (copy of the Silvertone Apocalypse Paul Stanley guitar) and it cant be stored on a guitar rack or stand, so im thinking a wall hanger is the way to go. Im wondering what is the BEST possible guitar wall hanger that I can buy? I want something that is built to last, heavy duty, and something I can trust wont fall off the wall and hurt my guitar.

Answer
I recently bought a Hercules. It is designed so the front has to arms that prevent the guitar from sliding forward off the hanger. When you lift the guitar, the arms automatically open. I have a Fender Dreadnought Grand Acoustic (solid wood and very heavy) hanging on it, and it is holding very well. Make sure you follow the directions when you install it. You'll want to make sure you use a drill to make uniform holes, and the proper studs inside the holes for your type of wall.

I wanna put my guitar on a wall in my apartment as decoration but i wanna be able to take it down and play it . How should i do this. some rubber hooks or what?

Answer
you can buy a wall mount that works just like a regular guitar stand except it is bolted on to your wall at most stores where you purchase your guitars. it should run you about 15-20 bucks.

What guitar stand should i buy for an explorer shaped guitar?

gtjames77

I have just bought a gibson explorer and i need a stand for it, my dad won't let me have a guitar wall hanger so i need a stand. i saw a couple of hercules stands on the internet that 'auto-lock' your guitar into place at the neck. Would an explorer neck fit in as it is quite thin? and they are a few different models and i don't know which one is best, can someone plz help me? thanks

Answer
Any stand will work as long the guitar is being hung by the head. Just make sure the stand is high enough so your guitar isn't sitting on the ground.

Since the head of the guitar is bigger than the neck, it will work just like any other guitar. With the exception of those guitars with no heads on the ends of the neck.

How can I put this in my drywall?

Sean W

I have a Fender Guitar wall hanger and I want to install it in my bedroom in the drywall. The problem is that I don't own a drill. Is there anyway I can install the anchors and the screws into the wall without a drill or am I screwed? <--(horrible pun intended)

Thanks in advance.

Answer
They do make anchors that can be driven into the wall, then you tighten the screw to mushroom the anchor behind the drywall. Check your local hardware store or home center. They look like the ones n the link below, but have a point on the end. Hope this helps.
