A useful tool to save space and get you to practice more often,
This thing isn’t some fancy item with tons of features to review, but it does what it’s supposed to: it grips your guitar or bass securely, saves some floor space, displays your instrument nicely, and puts it in plain sight and arm’s reach so that you can practice more often. I also like the fact that it’s wood and not some ugly polyethelyne plastic or something like that. As I couldn’t find a stud in my wall, I mounted this thing on the side of my wood bookshelf and it looks and works beautifully. One thing: DO NOT JUST DRILL ANYWHERE INTO YOUR WALL FOR THIS THING!! Make sure you mount it in a stud or on some significant piece of wood, because odds are some day the weight of your guitar or bass will rip it out of drywall and then you may or may not have damaged your instrument. So, buy one or five of these and make a nice display of your axes.

|Great deal,
I’ve purchased similar wall hangers from some of the online musical instrument dealers for $12 to $14 and was skeptical when I saw these for around $9. I am happy to report that the structural quality is as high as the more expensive options and (to my surprise) the wood grain is much better looking than the picture would indicate.
Others have suggested that these be mounted to a stud but the included drywall anchors, when installed correctly, are very secure and would easily withstand the heaviest guitar you have (unless, perhaps, you play a 4″ thick solid ebony instrument). If your studs are 16″ apart, you could utilize them (staggered mounting if necessary) and get a fairly dense wall of guitars but if your studs are 24″ apart you’ll have a large (8″+) gap between instruments and may wish to opt for drywall anchors for some instruments as I have.
The back of my acoustic instruments (000, 00, Parlor & Classical) sit well clear of the back wall so I haven’t had the need to put protective backing on the wall behind them (consider some backing if children or careless adults will be removing & replacing instruments from the wall). If you plan to use these for electrics, I’d opt for the electric specific hangers so they hang closer to the wall.
As a guitar builder, here’s some advice for any newbies:
Keep your instrument in it’s (humidity controlled) hard case except when playing. Failing that, keep it up high using a wall hanger and control humidity for the entire room (40 to 50%). I’ve seen far too many instruments get damaged when sitting down on a guitar stand.

|Much better than expected,
I had never heard of Vtech phone before and read the reviews for this system and thought the blue-tooth connection wouldn’t be used in my house. However I decided to give it a try and I was amazed by the sound quality and the battery life, and I actually find myself using the blue-tooth to use my cell phone all the time. One of the best features is being able to use different handsets at the same time, they can all conference on one line or you can conference on the home line and other handsets can conference on the cell line, amazing feature! My only drawback is I don’t like that it has an answering machine I have voicemail on my cell and my vonage line so there is no need for it to take up extra space, but very very small drawback.

|Nice phone,
We had the uniden phones before this which were very good and lasted a long time (about 6 years). When I went to find a replacement system, consumer reports had the Vtechs better rated than Uniden so I found a system with the features we needed and went with it. Really like the bluetooth ability to link to our cellphones so cell calls can be answered with the home phones. Also the ability to dump all my contact phone numbers into the Vtech from my cell saved hours of entering information for frequently called numbers. On the down side, the Unidens allowed us to enter a custom name for each phone so that we knew which extension belonged in each room and where the intercom calls were going. The Vtechs don’t allow the indivual phones to be named so it’s just extension 1, extention 2, etc. Small but important item if you have many extentions like we do. Also, Vtech could have done a better job with area code recognition for long distance dialing. You enter your home area code in the setup but if you have a number programmed into the phone that is outside your area code, it doesn’t automatically put the 1 in front of the area code for long distance dialing. It’s an easy feature to program in for Vtech, not sure why they left it out. But it makes you have to go into each stored number, that is long distance, and add a 1 before the stored number. What a pain! Overall though, the phones work well and sound quality is excellent.
