WinterMute Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Wall hangers are essential kit in small rooms, provided you have the wall space for your massive collection... Here's my 4, I now have a reason not to buy more basses, as I don't have any more wall space between the acoustic treatment, so it's going g to be 1 in, one out from now on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be silly, there's still floor space surely? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only there was, it's a single garage conversion that's got a floating room construction to keep the noise out of the house, and there's a lot of kit in it anyway... I could probably lose the sofa for enough room for a 6 bass rack though, so there's always hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLowDown Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 I lean mine each in a different corner of the room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only keep out the ones that I actually use, and the rest go in their cases. I'm hoping one day there will only 1 corner occupied.

I've used them for years with no ill effects! I think it generally keeps them safer and I've never (yet!) had anything fall off despite all of the ones in the photos being hung of plasterboard walls (using special wall-plugs). We have a 'Basses on the Settee' thread, but I'd like to see how hung people are! Are the defective ones in the naughty corner ? Way too many strings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blowinblue Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 I could put my basses on wall hangers, but then they would be more subject to temperature and humidity changes. And collect dust. And be more prone to damage in a California earthquake. My basses reside in cases or gig bags (unless being played). 🙂 M. M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binky_bass Posted August 11, 2022 Author Share Posted August 11, 2022 Certainly nothing wrong with casing the beasts up. While I definitely don't play all of mine daily or even weekly, I do enjoy the aesthetics of having them neatly presented on the wall - almost like an art installation. I get the most enjoyment from playing them of course, but I do definitely also enjoy being able to see them every day even if I don't play them! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
