A useful tool to save space and get you to practice more often June 13, 2006 Sherpa Kahn (New York, NY) 34 out of 34 found this review helpful
This thing isn't some fancy item with tons of features to review, but it does what it's supposed to: it grips your guitar or bass securely, saves some floor space, displays your instrument nicely, and puts it in plain sight and arm's reach so that you can practice more often. I also like the fact that it's wood and not some ugly polyethelyne plastic or something like that. As I couldn't find a stud in my wall, I mounted this thing on the side of my wood bookshelf and it looks and works beautifully. One thing: DO NOT JUST DRILL ANYWHERE INTO YOUR WALL FOR THIS THING!! Make sure you mount it in a stud or on some significant piece of wood, because odds are some day the weight of your guitar or bass will rip it out of drywall and then you may or may not have damaged your instrument. So, buy one or five of these and make a nice display of your axes.

Great deal June 20, 2009 M. Windham (Austin, Tx United States) 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
I've purchased similar wall hangers from some of the online musical instrument dealers for $12 to $14 and was skeptical when I saw these for around $9. I am happy to report that the structural quality is as high as the more expensive options and (to my surprise) the wood grain is much better looking than the picture would indicate.
Others have suggested that these be mounted to a stud but the included drywall anchors, when installed correctly, are very secure and would easily withstand the heaviest guitar you have (unless, perhaps, you play a 4" thick solid ebony instrument). If your studs are 16" apart, you could utilize them (staggered mounting if necessary) and get a fairly dense wall of guitars but if your studs are 24" apart you'll have a large (8"+) gap between instruments and may wish to opt for drywall anchors for some instruments as I have.
The back of my acoustic instruments (000, 00, Parlor & Classical) sit well clear of the back wall so I haven't had the need to put protective backing on the wall behind them (consider some backing if children or careless adults will be removing & replacing instruments from the wall). If you plan to use these for electrics, I'd opt for the electric specific hangers so they hang closer to the wall.
As a guitar builder, here's some advice for any newbies:
Keep your instrument in it's (humidity controlled) hard case except when playing. Failing that, keep it up high using a wall hanger and control humidity for the entire room (40 to 50%). I've seen far too many instruments get damaged when sitting down on a guitar stand.
Saved me a ton of space! March 16, 2007 C. R. Stone (greensboro, NC) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
The 'ol studio room looks cleaner now. I trust them, as I chose to install them into studs. I'd probably be alright with sticking them straight into the wall, but just chose not to. The look great, too! Simple and fast to install, took a matter of minutes to install 5 of them.
Swing wood Guitar Wall Hanger April 5, 2007 James C. Tapper (Arizona) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Great item for hanging your guitars, mandolins, and ukeleles on the wall. Unfortunately when you order two of them you only get one. You also don't get any responses from Amazon or the company that distributes them after you have e-mailed them several times.
String Swing Guitar Hanger February 27, 2008 T. Franceschi (California) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I bought 4 of these wood hangers for my guitars and they all came with the same type of wood. Unless the wood is very different I don't see the problem because you really don't see much of the wood anyway. Great product at a great price. I did fine wall studs though and I think if you can, that is the way to go.
