Finally put my basses on the wall

[ergon]

I's been about a month and a half since i bought these wall hangers and i just put them up today, i was quite impressed with myself (I usually buy something and it never gets put up) so here's a picture of my great achievement.

Yeah i'm going to newyork in 2 weeks so i'm going to buy new parts for it, considering how well built it is for an £80 bass i reckon it deserves better electronics and a little bit of pimping to make it look more like a real fender.

exactly my worry for the first few days of having them up

Hi

Not wishing to rain on your parade but here's a picture of what can happen with those wall hangers..needless to say the damage occured before I became proud owner!

So take care, especially with a tort headstock!

Ooooooooooh, brutal!!! I think your best bet is to put another one directly underneath so as to provide the necessary support to stop it cutting in to the bass... I've got 3 brackets for each of my wall basses (unfortunately this means I can't fit many on each wall, but unless you have a ridiculously huge collection [in which case buy a bigger room] that shouldn't be a problem), one under each horn and one just below the bridge - spreads the weight out nice and evenly!

Judging by the shape of that doorway, that's an extremely distorted photo, which means the bass must be a VERY weird shape!
