Plans for or pictures of a rack to hold guitars?


Pieman

Question

Posted

As a winter project, I would like to build a rack to store about 6 guitars in their cases. Some have flat bottoms and some are round. I am thinking of something where the cases lean back. Trying to figure out how to separate them so they don't butt up against watch other like books side by side.

If you have a link to website with some ideas or, if you have a photo, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks tom

That would do me just fine.

I dismantled a 1904 piano a few years ago and salvaged most of the wood. I will look at the stash tonight and see what I can use.

Thanks tom

My dad built me something kind of like that, but with room for amps underneath. I've got 5 gaps on top holding 4 cases each, and the height underneath for amp storage is 28", which is about right. The flat part for the guitar cases is slightly tilted back, I could add dowels from behind so the cases don't touch, but I'm pretty happy with this rack. I'll shoot a quick pic,- standby.

Jimbilly-

My Dad was a pretty handy guy and that looks like something he could concoct. He once built a revolving Christmas tree stand which was pretty remarkable considering what a decent-sized tree and lights can weigh. I sure miss him. Give your Dad a hug for me.

Here's to all the dads who have grabbed a tool or two and built something interesting for their child or for the family. My dad could and can build or fix about anything be it a building, car, boat, RV. I am lucky to hang a picture on the wall correctly. I wish I had picked up his skills. I was often nearby but just didn't absorb the skills.

I was thinking about building a storage stand for my home not a portable one like this below but having similar features - I like the base that the guitar bodies are separated in - You could use a hard plastic foam and cover it with a velvet similar to a guitar case just like the image below-or and soft durable fabric- I think Ideally I would build a "wall" in-between each guitar to assure you don't bump (DING) the instrument when putting it in or out-

Does that make any sense?

Thanks for the offer on the Iowa builder, but I want to build it myself.

That Fender tweed case concept is interesting but it looks like it could tip over.
