Cool solid wood guitar stands - Custom made in Iowa

[bduersch]

For a long time I'd been resorting to the standard metal A-frame guitar stands in the corner of the living room to store my guitars on. Practical, but not incredibly classly looking. Finally, I decided it was time to upgrade to something a little better, and I stumbled across this:

http://www.guitar-stands.com/

This guy makes guitar stands out of various woods (oak, walnut, cherry) for acoustics and electrics. The acoustic stands can hold 2, 3, or 5 guitars; and the electric stands can hold 3, 5, or 9 guitars.

I ordered three oak stands--two 9-electric stands and one 3-acoustic stand. Here are the results:




L to R: Customized RG2020x, RG3120TW, USRG30TP, JPM100P1, JPM90HAM, JEM90HAM, JS90HAM, Jackson USA Soloist SLS, Gibson Les Paul Standard DC+


L to R: RG7CTVV, RG1880BGS, RGART, UV777BK, UV77MC, JEM7VWH


L to R: Guild True American, Takamine EF385 12-string, Gibson Country Western Model

Guitars not included *

Anyway, if you're in the market for some nice looking guitar stands and you're not inclined to make them yourself (if you're as lazy as I am), then you might give these a shot. Both people I talked to were very friendly and helpful, and the stands are well-built and reasonably priced. And no, I'm not getting kickback if all of you rush out to order these stands.

Enjoy!

Hey Brent, isn't it a bit embarrassing to post those pics with all those empty electric slots? * Shame on you.

Yeah, yeah... I'm working on filling the rest of the slots. I guess I could put my bass in one, then I'd only have 2 more to go.

With any luck, maybe I'll have those last slots filled by the end of the week.

are the black rails along the bottom of each stand cushions for the guitars???

The rails along the bottom are wood strips that are covered in a felt-like material. They are pretty hard, though, so it would be possible to ding a guitar if you smacked it into the rails really hard. The felt-like material is also present in the U-shaped cutouts for the necks.
