Reddit mentions: The best guitar stands

It's a cute place with good bones- but I see what you mean!

First thing's first, don't be in a rush. There's no need to go buying a bunch of extra stuff just to fill space.

My advice would be to start with what you have already:

• Unpack/clean up any boxes sitting around full of stuff. Clear off your fireplace area
  
  
• Find a place for things like the Febreeze that isn't 'sitting out in the open' Any cabinet will work :)
  
  
• Make the bed, hang/fold clothes in their proper spaces. Even if you want to get an external closet rack that's fine, just don't leave it draped over everything.
  
  
• Rotate the coffee table and rug so the long side faces the main couch and pull the couch out closer to the doorway. The lounge side is great for creating a barrier and separating the space into two rooms! But you've got it pushed too far into the wall so it makes the space feel claustrophobic
  
  
• I see a guitar beside the couch, get a wall mount (like this) and hang it on the wall (above or beside the couch maybe?). Still easy access, but now it brings some interest to the room
  
  
• In the bedroom, rotate the little bench next to the nightstand so it sits under the window
  
  Now for things you will want to add (slowly):
  
  
• Some candles! Don't need all that febreeze if you get a nicely scented candle (you can get a manly smell like 'Woodland' by Bath & Body Works, or 'Teakwood' or something just clean) Throw a candle on the coffee table or on that fireplace surface.
  
  
• Throw pillows for the couch. Even just one or two that have a different color or texture will be nice.
  
  
• Art! Maybe it's movie posters, or thrift store paintings or pages cut out of a pretty calendar, but hang something up on the walls. Frames don't have to be expensive but I always recommend them if you're going the poster route
  
  
• Plants will add a touch of life to the place, even easy care plants like a succulent or a cactus or some bamboo. It doesn't need to be a huge investment, but a decent pot will do wonders too- get it in a color or pattern you like!
  
  
  
  Overall, the space just needs some personality and an appeal for the senses. Adding some colors, some smells and some new textures will really elevate it without breaking the bank!
  
  

Hi there - congrats on the guitar. First, take your guitar to a luthier (NOT Guitar Center) to have it be professionally set up. Setting it up includes adjusting the action (the height of the strings above the frets), adjusting the height of the pickups, ensuring the neck is perfectly straight, etc. This isn't something you want to do yourself, but a correctly set up guitar can mean the difference between a new player being able to learn or not. Simply put, a properly set up guitar plays worlds easier than one that isn't.

Also get yourself a few sets of strings (I like to get .010s for electric, especially when first learning), some picks (I like Dunlop Max-Grip 0.88s for learning electric), and a stand to keep your guitar on -- something like this, which I like because it rests the weight on the body of the guitar, and has the strap up top to ensure the guitar doesn't fall out of the stand if bumped.

You'll need a good strap -- something adjustable and comfortable to wear. Consider getting strap locks, too, as it's common for some other types of strap to simply fall off while playing.

You may also want to get some fretboard conditioner, a peg winder (these are like $3), and a polishing cloth. Both Fender and Gibson make perfectly great guitar maintenance kits with fretboard conditioner, polishing cloths, etc. Just don't buy that crap that supposedly extends the life of your strings. It's snake oil. Change the strings when you start to see visible corrosion on them (from your fingers). If you're practicing with your new guitar like you should be, you're likely to need to change them once a month or so. Don't be shy about this...strings aren't that expensive. :-)

Never posted before, so take it as you will, but here are a couple minor things off the top of my head:

I'm not great with layout and the best flow of the room, but one suggestion is to move the bookshelf to the other side of the room (assuming there's enough room on that wall). That'll open up the entry to the room.

Assuming you keep the furniture layout about the same, generally tidiness will make a room automatically look better. You're also gonna wanna clean up the stuff on the back shelf. If you get yourself a bedside table, possibly with a drawer, that keep things neater. If you're going to buy something, pick up a new desk. Not only will it look nicer, but could also give you drawers to hide some of the stuff that is out and block the tower. Can even check your local Craigslist, plenty of nice desks for cheap on there. I got a real nice solid wood desk used for under $100. Also could get a floor lamp next to the desk in the corner.

The second major part is to get some stuff on those walls. You say you're a music fan, there are some classy looking music/band posters out there, but just make sure you frame them! You can also get a wall mount for that guitar, which not only adds a little flair to the wall but also frees up some floor space. Another quick fix would be to get some well fitting curtains on the window. The DIY part there would be to install a curtain rod, but that's not too hard.

Just my two cents, anyone else can chime in if they have anything else. Good luck!

You already have art! It would look awesome to hang the guitars along the back wall, spaced out. You would use hooks like these: https://www.amazon.com/Top-Stage-GraK-Q4-Hangers-Holders/dp/B00LTDON0K/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1486312087&sr=8-3&keywords=guitar+hooks

I would recommend moving the TV to the corner where the guitars are now to open up the window. Putting something in front of the window like that makes it appear that you don't have enough room.

Instead of putting the recliner/chair against the wall, I would recommend putting it on the opposite side of the couch angled toward the TV (with its back toward the bar). It looks like it would fit there, a little hard to tell without dimensions. Move the lamp to the other side of the couch and put the end table all the way back against the wall.

I like the "Rarified Air" paint color for the walls. You want to keep it bright for a minimalist look.

I recommend getting a rug, 6x9 at least. It will make the room look bigger. You can put the rug all the way to the back wall and put the couch on top of it if you feel like it extends too far into the room. Use painter's tape to get a feel for the fit. I like these rugs:
http://www.rugsusa.com/rugsusa/rugs/rugs-usa-hk110-dimensional-triangles/Green/200HJHK110A-508.html

https://www.rugsusa.com/rugsusa/rugs/surya-qtz-5025/Sky-Blue/158QTZ5025-203.html

https://www.rugsusa.com/rugsusa/rugs/rugs-usa-co6-diamond-cotton-check-flatwoven/Taupe/200HMCO6B-406.html

Before getting a new coffee table and end table, look at it with a rug. With all the furniture being black, it may make the room feel really heavy. You might like the way the wood looks more once it can show some contrast on the rug versus blending in to the floor like it does now.

Throw pillows are where you can have some fun. I'm a fan of these: https://www.etsy.com/listing/490112961/modern-pillow-cover-geometric-blue-throw?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=modern%20pillow%20covers&ref=sr_gallery_26

Ok - so you're wanting to stick with the pieces you have. You said in another comment you're thrifty (me too!) and not wanting to spend much, so here's what I'd do:

Right now the dark pieces seem very harsh in the room. I'd embrace the theme of the natural wood accents, and tie in your black pieces by adding in some other natural textures! I was bored/procrastinating and did up a (very choppy) photoshop of what I would do with the space. Here you go! I edited out the clutter just for the sake of the design.

I'd love to see some sort of curtain (beaded?) in front of the vanity to make it feel like a more cohesive room. I think something like this would look really cool, although it's a bit pricy. This is more affordable. You could DIY the circles from the UO one if you like them, I'm sure!

I agree with the other poster about mounting the guitars to the wall and storing the stand.

I would make some dowel frames for your map, and hang it above the mirror. I'd also make a few smaller black and white cardstock prints at Staples (cost you about fifty cents or less per page), do the same with the frames, and stack them vertically along the space of the wall beside your closet door.

Are you crafty? You might be able to make a diffuser shade for your 'boob' light like these folks did.

I'd recommend going to Home Depot / Walmart etc and getting a couple more plants, and putting them in terra cotta pots (they're pretty inexpensive).

I would also get a few baskets and put them on the middle shelf of your bookshelf, to break up the lines and make it less overwhelming to look at.

I would get something for your makeup table to contain your makeup so it looks less cluttered.

​

Heres some pieces similar to what I photoshopped in that you could pick up on on a budget, but a lot of them could be thrifted if you like hunting!

Beaded Curtain

Lamp Shade

Guitar wall mounts

Linen textured curtains

Basket for makeup brushes

Baskets for shelf organization

​

I can't see what's going on in your bed area, but if you like my suggestions, I'd be happy to make more recommendations if you post a picture!

​

Edit: fixed a link

From left to right, the boards are the Tan Tien, Dervish Sama, Icarus, and the Boosted Board. Tan Tien and Dervish Sama are more of my cruising boards with the Icarus a carving board. I mostly ride the Dervish and my wife rides the Tan Tien (since it's smaller). Also bought and returned the Loaded Overland (didn't like it as much)

The stands are the guitar stands from Amazon mentioned here a lot. Here is the link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LBKFYUO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I tried out different trucks and wheels and found the orangatang 80a to be the best for me (same as on the Boosted Board). The 2 on the left have Caliber II trucks. I like the Caliber trucks since they spring back to neutral position quickly which is great for cruising and is very stable. The Icarus is meant for carving so it has looser Paris v2 trucks. I tried the 80mm Orangatang Kegal wheels on these boards and always managed to get wheelbite (and thus crashing) so I went with 70mm wheels and can ride without worrying

Nose and tail guards also from Amazon. Highly recommended as these went flying into the curb a few times and no damage to the board: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XGJ8PHM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s03?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Hope this helps!

You're right, the instrument does not factor in as much as one's interest. Totally right.

Of the packages listed, the first Yamaha one for $159 looks very nice. You'd definitely get more than your money out of it. Yamaha has a great rep. for longevity.

I own this Rogue for $79 and love it to death. I taught Grade 6 and students were allowed to play whenever they wanted - it never got any rest from students or teachers.
I'd get this Snark tuner, this guitar strap, these strings, this string winder, and finally this stand. Oh, and these thin picks.

That gives you a grand total of $119.24. I've either owned or used all of these products and can vouch for them.

Now, the other thing I'm thinking of... there's this instructional book on Google Books, where you get the first 64 pages for free. It's a great resource, but the name escapes me. If I think of it, I'll write back. I hope this helps.

Yeah if you have room for only one, then you're probably safer with a bass combo. The problem will be that you can't then get guitar niceties like pleasing overdrive.

Not sure what your layout is, but you might be able to free up some space in a couple of ways:

• Hang your guitars - I use the wall-mounted Hercules hangers, but if you can't drill into the walls there are options like this: https://www.amazon.com/Guitar-Hanger-1001-Original-Closet/dp/B002NPCISC
  
• If you're just practicing, then a small combo like the Fender Rumble 25 or Ampeg BA108 may be fine. There's even the Fly 3, but I have never played one.
  
• Depending on your budget for a bass combo, consider one that is large enough for you to place your guitar amp on top of; front-mounted controls would be a plus, although they are less common;
  
• Don't get an amp, but use a computer interface instead...you'll need some decent headphones, though.
  
  

Ok, he's my still ghetto but much much less depressing method.

Sleep on the boxes, just cover them up with more fabric. $10

Get the hanging shit off the ceiling, it looks creepy. $0

Go to ikea, don't get a fancy desk. Screw those, they fall apart, and are more difficult to move if they stay together. They have a modular desk system. This is the main surface, and these cheap bastards are the legs.

Very easy to take apart.

Desk: $25 + tax. Let's just say $30.

Now get two or three of these LED strips. At $17 each, these things are pretty cheap. Don't use the adhesive on the back, it's meant to be permanent. Just use another method to attach them to your ceiling in a sort of back and forth zig-zag or S pattern.

If you got three of these, you have ample lighting in your room, two backup-up power supplies if one fails, and three remotes. Use two of those temporary "command-strips" to put two remotes on the wall, one next to your entrance, the other next to your bed, then leave the third as a regular remote. You can now control the lighting, and the entire color of your room from anywhere. I actually hung them slightly low, and pointed them at the ceiling, creating a sort of ambient lighting, and less glare from the individual diodes.

LED ceiling $51 + command strips, and whatever means you use to hang them about $60.

Posters are cheap. 3 posters from target = $22

A cool cube clothing organizer. This is also very modular, and has those doors to keep it from looking too trashy. $67

Put your guitar on this guitar stand. $15

If you have big headphones (I don't see any. If you use earbuds/iems then ignore this) then put this banana holder on your desk. They are perfect for holding headphones, and look cool while doing it. $12

At this point, I've gone slightly over budget it. My guess is around $216 total for all of the above.

Big comfy chairs are huge, and expensive. I suggest checking the free section of craigslist for something like recliners. Just make sure they're bug-free, throw those in there, and throw them away or give them away when you move.

I got lucky, and eventually got a pretty light comfy chair that I do actually move with me now, using this method.

It’s actually a cheap $12 guitar mount, purchased from Amazon.com. It was suggested to me from a video or blog I encountered, which listed it as one of the best accessories for Boosted Boards. It’s a guitar stand, but it works perfectly for Boosted Boards. Link to the product on Amazon is below...

Top Stage Pro Universal Guitar Stand https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00LBKFYUO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_brJ2CbZ7RCJ55

• Clip on tuner - Convenient and useful on all of my instruments.
  
• Seat belt guitar strap - Love the feel of that fabric and how smooth it is on almost any clothing. Mine is a Levi's model with a click belt buckle, I don't think they make it anymore.
  
• Guitar Wall Hangers - These things save so much space, and make my office look so cool. A wall of six guitars and two bass just looks awesome.
  
• iRig + Garage Band for iOS - This is my go to practice setup and music writing tool. I used to have a fairly complex home studio setup, but most of it got sold off once I got the iRig. Not because it's just as good, but because it's so much faster to set up and use.
  
• Stick on pick holders - I've got one of these on all of my heavily played guitars, and they're really handy. Most of my guitars are battered so I'm not worried about finish, otherwise I use a strap pick holder.
  
  

Great looking V, i've been gassing for something pointy.

Definitely invest in a hanging stand! This one is pricey but super nice.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000EEHKVY/ref=s9_acsd_simh_hd_bw_bWuxHf_c_x_w?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=merchandised-search-2&pf_rd_r=363WQE02Z9QMA54THRHY&pf_rd_r=363WQE02Z9QMA54THRHY&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=bf788647-9cc2-443c-bab6-8f61d767a5fe&pf_rd_p=bf788647-9cc2-443c-bab6-8f61d767a5fe&pf_rd_i=486417011

hang a an old steel guitar with something like this? or perhaps a banjo or mandolin may even fit in with the decor better. also, is that a recessed light at the top of it? i think its a really fantastic space that, if used correctly, would really make the area "pop."

I think it's this one- I bought it in anticipation of getting my board soon. So while I can't say how it holds up with a BB on it, it definitely seems pretty sturdy and like it will do a great job.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00LBKFYUO/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1478089479&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=top+stage+pro+universal+guitar+stand&dpPl=1&dpID=41ri7%2BXS7LL&ref=plSrch

The one I got was this one from Amazon Canada and seems to be slightly different. Looking at mine with the Inmotion V8 (13.5kg), I think the weak point of the stand would be that pivot near the two arms that hold the wheel. When I look at pictures of the one you listed the part that I am talking about seems to be rigid which is a good thing given the extra weight of your wheel. I obviously can't say for sure but it seems like a good purchase :)

• You're pretty
  
• Thanks for the contest!
  
• Best I could do was these two items which are $9.99 each, so $19.98 total. I need them for the guitar I just bought that I'm picking up next week.

i agree with /u/cursethedarkness/ so i have a few suggestions for ideas

also, go vertical for your guitar

You will get a more room in your wardrobe once you fold things properly. Keep all your grooming products in small basket

Keep all your paper organizer, again go vertical.

your wallet, glasses, keys, bags and jacket should go on one of this by the BD door. (i used to take them with me to my room and lose them all the time)

Whats bothering you about the wire basket? it looks like a lot bulky items not properly arranged and small boxes/packaging. If you would get other areas organized im pretty sure you wouldnt need to have that in the room.

Also, can you stack the bookcases? it would save you much more room.

Question, do you have any love for dvd, cds and old games? would you miss them if gone? we live in a digital age so there is that to think about. If you really want to keep them consider moving them to above the wardrobe maybe, if they are not regularly used there is no need for them to be in such an accessible place.

EDIT: crap, i just read you are bone-broke, sorry ... well, even old boxes are good for organizing and avoiding the floor raising clutter piles.

I've used a guitar stand in the past and it worked quite well. Something like: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0006NDF8A/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_LK-UBbE8KRGKG

I rested the pod of the tie on the top support and it displayed nicely.

This rack with a large blanket to cover them up when not in use.

I do have 2 dogs, but this is a very sturdy, stable rack so really no chance of them knocking a guitar off the rack. Highly recommended. I find I'm playing a lot more often when I can just grab a guitar off the rack and go.

I've had this one forever... I have a few others that have a little more bend to them, but they work perfectly as well. Most guitar stores sell these for $7-$10 and I see an Amazon 2-pack (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B019ONS4TC?psc=1) for $12 that would probably work.

I'm not sure this is the least-expensive solution... but moving an old banjo into the closet was all this cost me!

You can use a guitar stand to prop it up in a corner. I got one from Amazon for around 8 bucks, although it seems to have gotten a bit more expensive. Fit my Ownboard W1 without doing anything to the stand itself. I also think it's a pretty awesome way to display your board at the same time :D.

Wow the price soared on the one I used. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LBKFYUO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I'm using this one for my Inboard that is 15~16 lbs with battery in. NO sign of tipping over. I think Koowheel is also ~16 lbs so should work fine. I got mine for ~10 bucks, but it's soared since then. But really, any other ones should work fine too and if it doesn't just return say it can't support your instrument. XD

If you'd like to hang your board or anything else here's a solid option, the width should be enough to rest your trucks in.

E: Looks amazing btw lol

Here's my input along with links to products.

1. Put the bed on risers to add storage space.
   
2. Make a headboard for your bed. If you're handy, this can be done cheaply. If you're not handy, you can buy one for a reasonable price.
   
3. Can the dresser and the desk be swapped? If so, put the desk next to the bed so that you don't wake up to a wall to your right and so you can look out the window while working at your desk. The desk can also serve as a bedside table.
   
4. Mount the monitors on the wall to free up desk space. Here are a couple options - two singles and a double.
   
5. Re-do the shelves. They have a very garage feel. Some cheap board from the hardware store to even out the sides would make a real difference.
   
6. Put at least a picture above the bed on the side that's to your left while sleeping. It should be longer than it is tall. Scenery is good. I have this in my bedroom and I like the effect.
   
7. Mount the guitar on the wall.

I personally have the Amazon Basics version and its awesome.

https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Folding-Acoustic-Electric-Guitars/dp/B018FCZKR2

Consensus from other users that bought both is that the Amazon Basics one is better quality.

I don't know much about that guitar. Generally Yamaha makes very good lower end acoustics. If you see it at the store give it a go and see how it feels! Many people on here advise not going with starter packs, because while you're getting a lot, it's generally lower quality.

Many of the things included in this pack you could get for fairly cheap. I'd advice putting most of your budget toward a guitar you really love and get the accessories after.

For example, when I bought my guitar, I bought the guitar and a soft case, which I think was around $20 and I bought this stand: https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Tripod-Guitar-Stand-Security/dp/B018FCZRUW/ref=sr_1_6?s=musical-instruments&ie=UTF8&qid=1469461903&sr=1-6&keywords=guitar+stand

I got my strap for $5 (which you probably won't need at the beginning anyway) and I would suggest either getting lessons or starting with the vast amount of Youtube content. JustinGuitar and Marty Swartz are great places to start. Justin Guitar has an entire beginners course, which is what I started on.

-This is a good idea to get so you don't scuff up the board early on. Otherwise I wouldn't mod anything until your first 100 miles.

Surf Co Tail Guard (Choose Color & Size) (Black, Regular) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0779F2DWH/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_LyrmDb8MRF48S

-Definitely get a guitar stand as well. (you'll have to bend the it up a bit so the tail isn't sitting on the ground

ChromaCast CC-MINIGS Universal Folding Guitar Stand with Secure Lock https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BU9KCXK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_qCrmDbMY159CE

Might not be the most popular, but these are great. I've used these for a few months now and I had no problems. They're sturdy, cheap, and work great.

I got this one:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01C5G2TQY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_4thCDb1V2QJ9G

Looks like there are other cheaper ones as well. I’d just be sure you get one with bending arms, I had to bend mine more narrow so they properly fit the Pint.

I use just a regular stand and it works perfectly fine! I’ve used it for over a year now since purchasing my first strandy


ChromaCast CC-MINIGS Universal Folding Guitar Stand with Secure Lock https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BU9KCXK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_SYnTDb304E4HH

I guess things I enjoy. Hobbies, experiences, things like that. That's why my music is one of the centerpieces of the room, instead of waiting until I had more space. I have trinkets from travelling around, some currency from foreign countries I could frame, that kind of thing. I was considering hanging my Les Paul guitar on the wall, with either somthing like this hanger or this horizontal one. I also have a little acoustic guitar like this.

Music, life experiences, could be the two main things.

Amazon Folding Guitar stand. The cool thing is that you can bend the arms to fit the pint perfect

that was easy

Space for picture with dog -found one
I must go to my family house to procure said dog picture.

Edit: terrible picture of me, but you can see my dog pretty good!

$35 shipped on Amazon. That's the stand I have and it's pretty great.

quitar stands work pretty well for airsoft guns, was gonna use these till i got a cheap gunsafe for a gift

This one works great for me! Feels nice and sturdy Hercules GS302B Travlite Compact Electric Guitar Stand https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000P5WTQS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_JHKYBbM55HGAM

Any of the cheap stands work fine. These low ones are nice because the heads of the tall ones always seem to get in the way for me. The tall ones are more stable and amazon basics has one for about the same price as well.

1. Yep good way to do it.
   
2. Wouldn't need anything bigger than 1/2 inch thick if it's not cheap wood.
   
3. I'd say a minimum of 2 feet but that's just a guess.
   
4. https://www.amazon.com/Guitar-Ohuhu-Electric-Acoustic-Ukulele/dp/B019ONS4TC/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=Ohuhu+Guitar+Hanger&qid=1568038018&s=gateway&sr=8-4
   
5. If you might be bumping into them you might want hangers that have a strap or locking lever to hold the guitars on more secure.

Can you send me a link? What I have is great, but I'd save some space if I could get mine off of it's current stand (Ultimate Stand GS-200) and onto a wall.

Guitar wall hangers (like these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B019ONS4TC) fit the Vive wands perfectly, can also be used for the HMD and/or headphones, and can be mounted to the wall using 3M command strips if you don't want to drill holes. I'm using the wooden bases of the hooks to mount my lighthouses without drilling.

Pro tip: use a guitar stand like this. It works great and is only 10 bucks

Right now, what's holding my pride and joy is a La-Z-Boy from the mid-90's. When my wife's not sitting in the chair, the guitar gets the $15 special from Guitar Center. Upright tripod style.

Those little A-frames suck, IMHO, if we're thinking of the same thing?

Almost any mount will do more than 15lbs so long as you hang it in the studs as opposed to using dry wall anchors. I live these mount because they look aesthetically pleasing to me.

I also recently built a 4 guitar rack that is hanging on just two studs but hold 4 guitars just fine. I would totatlly be willing to hang on it if it was in my house. I just got a 2 x 4 cut it to length sanded it stained it varinished it then I go these cheaper hangers to put into the wood.

Quick, I will die if I don't get this implanted into my heart!

Not really, but it would be cool to be able to put my guitar somewhere besides my bed. :)

I use a guitar wall hanger and love it!

My ex had 3-4 guitars when we lived together. We used the guitar wall hangers that you need to screw into the wall. The only thing I found so far online that would keep your boyfriend's guitars out of the way is this one, which can hold them while hanging inside a closet so if his place has good closet space this could be a good idea?

I use these for wall mounting, the work pretty well:

I use guitar stand to hold my HD600. It does the job pretty well.

I have bought some "String Swing" wall hangers for a few guitars and even a Ukulele (I know they are much lighter) and they seem very well built. The wood is good quality and it comes with drywall hangers. Sans hanging on them with your own body weight, they would hold just about anything.

It stands my V2 up perfectly

For that price you could get two of the Amazon Basic floor stands. I have one for my Gibson J-35 and it works well.

Sits fine just have to invert the board to fit, or else the kick tail hits the floor.

Any bass/guitar player is always happy to have another one of these. And they're only $10.

Oh, and another stand can always be used.

I agree this stand is not really worth much more than $5 to begin with maybe $10 max. I really like the Hercules stands.

pretty much, they are all basically the same

I'm pretty sure the guitar hangs by its neck and rests on the wood like a Hercules stand, but without the clamp.

Lucky number 13!

Guitar stand

Top Stage Pro Universal Guitar Stand https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00LBKFYUO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_gnu5WimqbJjpw 10 bucks you just bend the arms to fit the board.

Save yourself a lot of time and buy a hanger. Goes right into the stud and has an auto grip. As far as distance, you’ll just have to base that off of the guitar size and where your studs are.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0009K9MUA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_AlJDDb636G0JT

Any basic guitar stand for $10-$15 work fine.

I got this one
ChromaCast CC-MINIGS Universal Folding Guitar Stand with Secure Lock https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BU9KCXK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_PNambzgxqyMgH

I've used this for 6-7 years now, hasn't failed me yet: https://www.amazon.com/Stage-XCG4-Tripod-Guitar-Single/dp/B0006NDF8A



I wanna get something like this eventually: http://www.musiciansfriend.com/accessories/road-runner-rrgs6-6-guitar-stand-case I just need a couple more guitars first :P

I would hang that stringed instrument on the wall and pick up some simple frames for your posters. Perhaps also pick up some book ends and de-clutter your books and stuff over the desk.

Did you mount the TV yourself? The fact that there aren't a bunch of cords visible is a nice touch for a college kid.

I use these and absolutely love them. Wall Hanger

You can find the stud of you want, but at my current place I just went into the drywall anchor

Really great investment because it hurts like fuck when one of your babies decides to take a leap of faith off the wall.

Guitar, Amp, Instrument Cable, Headphones, Auto-Tuner, Metronome, Capo, Picks, Strings, Stand, Strap, Bag, String Winder, Polish & Cloth

Don't make them spend more than ~$200 on this. Consider pitching on for some of the accessories at least (though be aware that some of them are quite necessary right off the bat, such as a tuner).

You won't be able to appreciate the difference between a $100 guitar and a $5000 guitar by sound for at least a year and just to get started you need a bunch of supplies (see list above) and the cost adds up quick.

The guitar won't break unless you abuse it. Squier instruments are decent. In fact, you could even get something like a First Act at Walmart for under $100 and still not be able to appreciate the difference for quite a while.

I used these for awhile and it messed up the finish on a couple of my necks. I use these now: http://www.amazon.com/Hercules-GSP38WB-Mountable-Acoustic-Guitar/dp/B0009K9MUA $30 isn't much to spend to take care of something worth hundreds or thousands of dollars.

If anyone is curious:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01C5G2TQY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Sure! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006NDF8A/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I use this cable and this brand as well. For you at the moment there's really no reason to go with a $20 cable.

For picks I recommend buying a variety pack so you have a lot of picks that are different, find what you like. but I personally prefer the Dava Control.

As for stands, an On Stage stand is fine.

If you don't want to use a tuner pedal or clip on tuner you can download an app called PitchLab.

No idea about bags. I don't even use my bag.

I'd recommend one of these for all of those guitars.

Generic folding stand like this

Waiting for what? They're like $13 on Amazon.

I would get something like this to put the guitar on the wall since your floor space is at a premium.

You could get an amp grill cloth with a colourful design. Hang your guitars off the wall with something like this.

Hang your guitars like art on the wall. my favourite locking version

Yeah, maybe get a few of these

And get that White Falcon on display!

I use this one:

Fits the mini and longboard well on smallest setting.

It fits nicely in a guitar stand - You can go to town if you lower it enough or look for a way to attach it to something else

OP hasn't responded, but I'm thinking that they're using guitar hooks. I'm going to buy a four pack from Amazon here and go for the same setup.

I've made a couple comments in the past that you can check out for gear recommendations:
https://old.reddit.com/r/boostedboards/comments/993v45/mini_x_arriving_today_commuter_gear/e4l7smn/

https://old.reddit.com/r/boostedboards/comments/8vx25x/about_to_pull_the_trigger_on_a_mini_x_what_gear/e1r37d6/

I've also found this long list, but it contains some products I wouldn't recommend purchasing, so use cautiously.

Regarding a rack, simply purchase a cheap guitar stand. They do an excellent job at holding a board while not in use.

Regarding bash guards, Flatland 3D is by far the best option.

Regarding water, avoid it like the plague. If the Boosted Board has an enemy, that enemy is moisture. Even a small amount of moisture is enough to gum up the bearings and ruin motors. I used to keep my board in the bathroom and even though I always kept the window open, the humidity from showering caused one of the motors to go bad. Plus, riding on wet pavement is a great way to fall off your board. The pavement becomes slicker than ice.

Hardly innovative, but it does fold nicely, but not $60 nicely. Here are similar ones for $11, and made by Fender, electric, acoustic

For a gig, bringing a guitar stand isn't a big deal because if you're going to need one, you'll most likely be driving there.

For transparency, I don't use mini stands at all, I find them unstable. I use these

+1 for guitar stands. I haven't gotten one yet but I plan on picking this up: http://amzn.com/B00A2WZJDE

There's nothing better than Hercules in my opinion.

Their 5-guitar rack can hold up to 10 electric guitars by buying additional yokes.

http://www.amazon.com/Hercules-GS525B-5-Piece-Guitar-Rack/dp/B004P0MWCU

Sure... First off, is this the kind of stand you're putting it on?

https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Tripod-Guitar-Stand-Security/dp/B018FCZRUW/ref=sr_1_6?s=musical-instruments&ie=UTF8&qid=1473272112&sr=1-6&keywords=guitar+stand

If so, check the back of the neck, it's likely there too. If so, I recommend you DO NOT cleaning it/rub it/buff it for at least a month. It will allow the lacquer to re-cure. The rubbery material of the stand causes a chemical reaction on the nitro that will need to re harden.

The good news is that there are companies who specialize in LP reissues, they even make them more historically accurate. So, if it's that bad, or bothers you, that's always a later option.

I use these suepr cheap hangers for a relatively heavy bass, and an almost 10 lb Les Paul. They've lasted for over 2 years with no problem. As long as you mount them into a stud you're good. Do not mount any hanger directly into the drywall. It may hold, but not worth the chance it doesn't.

The worst thing I ever used for a guitar stand was a laundry basket with 2 clips on the outside of it to keep the guitar from falling over. That was when I was a lot younger and poorer. Now I use one of these and one of these those work pretty well.

Buy those poor guitars a stand

I have mine hanging with one of these screwed into a stud. No problems and it keeps it out of the way of the kids
