I have 4 of these 3 point hangers in the front room.

I have a Hercules one in our practice room, which will shortly be demolished (the room not the holder!)

I've 3 wall hangers;

1 in my bedroom - often with the Ovation on it.
2 in the back half of the lounge

They're very useful. Unless you own certain Status/Steinberger/Hohner (etc.) models...

Are they safe for storing basses.

More interested in hearing about neck/bass damage rather than them falling off the wall.

I had a few of the Hercules "grab it" type that spring into place when you put the neck into it. They were good and did not damage the basses. Bit more expensive but considering the damage if it fell off, it`s worth it.

Be careful using those on basses with a nitro finish on the neck (e.g. vintage Hofners).

Over time, even the neoprene covering will leave a "scar" on the finish.

I've been using them for a couple of years and never noticed any problems with the necks on any of my basses/guitars

Also, i have two in my bedroom, i live with my dad, no way they're going anywhere else

Used them for years... no problems here.

Mine live in a floor standing rack in the back bedroom but there's always 2 on hangers as the rack in;t big enough for them all. The 2 are a Strat and A N Other bass depending which I happen to be diddling with at the time.

I don't use dedicated wall hangers - I got a card containing 12 assorted hooks and hangers covered in red plastic from the pound shop - I use 2 of them - screwed into a plastic wall plug.

So they were just over 8p each !!

I've got my guns on them too - on the wall in the hallway - never had a faller yet.

I had 4 Hercules wall hangers in the small box room we had in Norwich. Since moving back down to Essex last year I've not been assigned any space to hang my basses as the small room now has a baby in it.
