Good quality wall hangers for guitars?
Discussion
I've got all the guitars on these:

well except the Gibson which is just too valuable.

One thing to take into consideration with these & guitar stands for that matter that are padded with these kinds of blown foam tubing is that they can interact with the finish. Nitro cellulose in particular can exhibit a kind of flowing around the pressure points & end up with a 'dent' in the finish. Personally, I cover mine with a bit of microfibre cloth to separate the guitar from the padding.
I've got three of these:

Seem to work well but one of them's going to have to be re-mounted as I didn't use appropriate rawl plugs for the plasterboard!

Good point re the nitro being sensitive to the material it is resting on: I'm waiting for my '82 Squier Strat to come back from being refinished in nitro (though the neck is poly AFAIK), so I'll have to be careful about where I put it so the new finish doesn't get marked.My OH actually suggested that I put all my guitars on the wall of our staircase so I'll be looking at some of those links myself too. It will be more convenient to have them handy (I'll make sure they're high enough out of harm's way of course) but I'm not really convinced that it won't look a bit 'naff'. Need to have a look for some photos online to help make up my mind, but otherwise I only have one 'out' in the living room and the others in cupboards which seems a shame.
I use these

I have my Les Paul and a Fender P bass hanging from them and no issue. It says the foam is nitro friendly
