mentalextra Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 So, I’m finally getting around to putting some basses on wall hangers. Only issue is that the wall is unfinished/rough and I’m wondering how to protect the body from scratches? Please don’t recommend wallpaper.🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geek99 Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Use a wood bounce strip at the level where the basses lower points hang 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geek99 Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Or maybe fix a strip of foam pipe insulation at that height Simples Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 (edited) I bought some rubber half "balls" which can be mounted to stop the basses bashing against the wall. I'll see if I can find the link. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/294341342975?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=xNN_TGWEQnm&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY Edited November 9, 2023 by TheGreek 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGreek Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 The trick is to fix the hangers and the stops to separate 4x1 boards and then fix those boards to the wall. Easier and tidier if and when you want to remove them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfoundfreedom Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 Put a bit of soundproofing foam behind. Win win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggaebass Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 I’ve got my basses on wall hangers and they haven’t hit the wall yet, if you are concerned then a piece of foam near the bottom stuck to the wall with double sided tape should do the trick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim2291 Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 Rubber door stops! The little round ones with the screw in the centre that usually get fixed to the floor, fix one to the wall at the bottom of the basses body, stops it hitting the wall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
