Looks great. Might I suggest a little variety in your hat colors?

I have the same one, but have always wondered if the Hercules version is more sturdy. http://www.musiciansfriend.com/acces...nt-guitar-rack

Anyone have both and willing to report their comparative experiences?

The Hercules case appears to be for holding/storing just guitars. Whereas the other stand will hold the cases. Two different uses. I have a 3 guitar stand and still have to contend with the cases. While it is nice to just grab a guitar and play, I can understand the logic of keeping the guitars in the cases. That adds maybe 3 extra minutes to the process. And the case is then put back on the stand while playing. Eliminating the clutter. I think the wood case stand is an excellent idea!

Ok Roy, you've got me convinced. I ordered two and my problems are solved. Thanks for the honest review.

I bought one of those about 5 months ago when I listed my house for sale. I thought it would look neater to have my guitars in a nice uniformed area. I love mine, great and simple idea.

I met a guy today wearing a pork pie hat. I played in a blues quartet until recently and remarked how a lot of the blues guys liked pork pies. This guy has several Heisenberg pork pies like Walter White in Breaking Bad. He's something of a collector.

Also, nice git rack!

I just ordered a String Swing rack after the positive comments here. It was $50.99 from MF using coupon code extra15.
