Mounting guitar on wall

[RVR]

I want to mount my guitar on my bedroom wall and I know they sell those hangers for it but I can't drill.

Is there some other way, like an alternative to drilling?

The problem with mounting to your wall with no screws or nails, is that you are mounting to paint with adhesive... Paint peels off walls.

There is a difference between "can't drill" and "have never drilled before".

Unless you don't have arm and hands, now is the perfect time to learn otherwise you'll have this problem for the rest of your life.

Buying a drill and some bits is going to be cheaper than a handyman too. Youtube will do the rest.

There is Sellotape that can do the job or even No More Nails but it will damage the wall and the guitar and odds are it will come crashing down at some point.

Light wooden guitar, heavy electric fender strat...what?
You going to be taking it down regularly or up for good....?

No I mean I can't drill on the wall, not allowed too.

I'm no handy man, but drilling a hole is KAAAAAK easy. If you struggle, bribe a friend with a beer, or perhaps play him a song.

If I was allowed to drill then I would, that's the problem.

Electric one.

No take it down regular, just when in the mood to play

Then why not rather get a floor stand to display it on?

 

[RedViking]

No. There is no alternative. Bolt fix or nothing. Otherwise get a floor stand.

Aaah that is quite different then.

In which case there isn't really any solution that isn't equally permanent as it would leave damage after the fact.

 

[RVR]

Thanks guys, I guess a stand or I'll try and convince to get the hanger drilled.

For hanging these with the two front pieces that automatically rotate to cover the neck are really nice.

These Hercules wall mounts are probably the best bang for buck quality ones. Only About R200-R250.

Ceiling mount ?

Not to highjack the thread but I’m so in love with my guitar I have to share! Let’s just appreciate this for a second!

Ok you can carry on with the thread!

Ceiling mount ?

Was about to say this. It's the only other possibility with current technology in the current universe.

I 3D printed my guitar hangers and then rubber coated it.

Okay okay okay.....

This is my cheapy....



I would not risk hanging something so beautiful with anythings else but a hanger bolted to the wall..... Any other wall fix option will have your guitar end up on gumtree.
