Free Up Space: Build a Wall Mount for Your Guitars

When your instrument collection starts to grow, space in your music room can quickly become a challenge. But don’t panic! Today, I’ll show you how to create a two-guitar wall mount, a simple and practical solution for organizing your instruments while saving space.

Build a Guitar Wall Mount: A DIY Solution to Free Up Space and Organize Your Music Room

Materials needed:

  • Wooden board (preferably 4-5 inches wide)
  • Guitar wall hook
  • Screws and dowels
  • Stud finder (or a method for locating studs in the wall)
  • 5/6 inch drill bit
  • Varnish or stain (optional for finishing)

Step 1: Prepare the wooden board

First, it is important to choose a good sized wooden board. A board that is 4-5 inches wide and 6-8 inches deep is ideal for supporting two guitars. Drill holes to install the hooks that will hold the guitar necks. Make sure to place them in the top third of the board to prevent the guitar heads from coming into contact with the wood.

Step 2: Installing the hooks

Hooks are essential for hanging your guitars securely. It is advisable to buy good quality hooks as they must be able to support the weight of your instruments without any risk. Drill the necessary holes in the board and install the hooks, making sure they are well spaced for two guitars.

Step 3: Attach the board to the wall

Once you have prepared your board and installed the hooks, it is time to attach the board to the wall. Use a stud finder to make sure you are drilling into solid areas of the wall. If you don't have a stud finder, you can still locate studs using manual methods. Drill holes for the anchors and screws, then mount the board securely to the wall.

Step 4: Aesthetic finishing

The aesthetic aspect of the board is just as important as its function. Apply a stain or varnish to give your wall mount a pleasant finish. You can choose a color that matches your decor or opt for a more rustic look if that better fits the ambiance of your music studio.

Step 5: Protecting the Guitars

To prevent damage to your guitar necks, it is a good idea to protect the hooks with rubber or vinyl. This ensures that your instruments do not get scratched or damaged over time. A simple vinyl casing can be cut to size and heated to fit snugly over the hooks.

Conclusion :

And there you have it! You now have a practical and aesthetic wall mount for your guitars, creating a functional and attractive storage space for your music room. It's a simple solution that not only frees up space, but also keeps your instruments within reach and well displayed.
