I've now got to the point where I have so many guitars in hardcases lying around the house that I just find myself playing whichever one is closest because the rest of them are a pain in the arse to get out.

I don't particularly like the idea of hanging them on the wall or having them all in an open guitar rack as after a previous burglary I'm paranoid about having my house broken into and my guitars being stolen. frown

I've looked into getting a guitar flightcase/vault made but I can't find anybody in this country whomakes them.

What do you guys do with yours? smile

In the hard case, in my front room next to the amp.

Three acoustics on the wall, half a dozen electrics under the bed in cases, the other twenty or so are in my attic lair out of sight, either in hard cases or on stands. I've lent a few out as well...

Guitars aren't so bad, but the amplifier collection doesn't half take up some room.

Try R J Flytes

Back in 2007, I had a 'crate' custom built to my own design, to hold 7 laptops.

Said 'crate' coped admirably with several overseas trips and when I last saw it (2 years ago) it was still going strong.

Mine are all wall hung except the Les Paul. As the house is dry-lined I didn't fancy hanging something that heavy...

In terms of burglars, they'll find the cases easily enough, so might as well have the guitars accessible. Oh, and I agree with the post about amps taking up too much room too.

Thanks for that! I've sent them an email.

I keep mine in their hardcases, though I only have one guitar at the moment, in a spare bedroom. I keep my amp in the living room. I wouldn't have them on wall hangers, they look nice in the right setting but dusting them would be a chore.
