The best guitar wall mount keeps a guitar secure, protects the finish where it touches, and lets you grab the instrument without a fight. It should also fit the wall you have, whether that is drywall in a bedroom or a slatwall in a studio.

STRICH offers two routes: rail systems that hold five or eight guitars on one aluminum track, and single walnut hangers for one guitar at a time. We compare both, then add two floor racks for walls you cannot drill.

The rail is detachable and splicable, so you can extend it later, and each hanger angles up to 270 degrees left or right.

How to choose the best guitar wall mount

Count your guitars, then add one. Collections grow, and a rail with a spare stop costs less effort than drilling again.

• Wall type. Drywall needs anchors or a stud. STRICH says to drill 6mm (1/4 inch) holes for its anchors and no larger, or mount a wood strip behind the rail first.
• Spacing. Acoustics and basses need wider gaps than slim electrics. Sliding rail hangers let you fine-tune.
• Headstock shape. Slanted or reverse headstocks sit better in a pivoting yoke like the walnut hangers.
• Finish. Nitrocellulose can react with some rubbers; if you own vintage guitars, consider the felt-padded SMT-10 rack.
• Climate. Keep guitars off exterior walls and away from heaters and vents.

Is a wall mount better than a floor stand?

Wall mounts free floor space and keep guitars away from feet, pets and kids. Floor racks need no tools or holes and move with you. Many players use both: a rail for display and a rack near the practice chair. We weigh them in depth in our multi-guitar stand guide.

How we picked
