I like to have my guitars out for a couple of reasons - because I play them more often if I can see them, and because they look good.
At the moment, I just have one stand, so I alternate the guitars to always have one on there.
My 3rd guitar is arriving on Tuesday, and I'm thinking of other storage solutions.
I think I'd like them on the wall, to reduce the floorspace used. To reduce the amount of cleaning needed, I'm thinking of something like this http://www.classiccase.co.uk which is basically a velvet-lined box with a Stringswing mounted in it. Or for roughly 3x the price, a local joiner will make me something similar out of solid oak, and with a glass front instead of acrylic.
Thoughts on this? Or any better options you know of (available in the UK)?
Also, my new guitar is a couple of firsts for me. It's a hollowbody, and it has a nitro finish (I don't think a 2019 core custom 24 would be nitro?) Do I need to take any special precautions with it for either of those reasons? Should I throw a humidifier into the cabinet?
I will also keep a single floor-stand, so I have somewhere to put a guitar if I need to put it down mid-practice. I'll get a new one though, as my current one is cheap and I can't see any branding, so possibly not nitro-compatible materials.
