Endless design & wood possibilities! I do think it would look better using thick stock. It looks like the ones listed are only 3/4" stock.

Consider yourself lucky with that lemon oil. It sounds difficult, but it's only used to condition an existing oil finish. The old rule on actually creating rubbed oil finishes (with boiled linseed oil) was to apply one coat a day for the first week, one coat every week for the first month, one coat each month for the first year, and then one coat per year for the rest of eternity. Also, they would use either 000 or 0000 steel wool on the item followed by a thorough wipe with tack cloth before each new coat. This process is pretty much why people stopped using oil finishes. On the other hand, regularly applying lemon oil to a rosewood fretboard is highly recommended as long as you don't overdo it. (Caveat: opinions vary wildly as to what constitutes 'overdoing it'. Use your own discretion. )
@FraJa1980
4 жыл бұрын
It's not recommendable to "overdo" that as Lemon Oil is a cleaner instead of a conditioner and can actually dry out a fretboard if used too frequently and without at least a slight coat of linseed oil afterwards to get some of the moisture back in you took out with the Lemon oil.

The problem with making the stands to fit side by side is the inverse shapes would have a narrow toe, or front. This would make it less stable as the center of gravity is rather forward when the guitar is on it, and stability is important.

I bought two of the Zither branded ones in red oak. I was torn about mahogany, 50% more expensive but I thought it would match better. However the pictures didn't really show the color well and I went with the cheap ones. On this video you show the rich mahogany color and I wish I'd sucked it up and went with it. I can say this: these stands are fantastic. To prevent any risk of nitro burn as insurance I just put an old baby sock on each side of the holder and no worries.

I think the reason they keep it from being too polished is that they don't want it to outshine the guitar. They don't want the stand to look 'prettier' than the guitar because then it doesn't flatter the guitar. This is obviously a very subjective and emotional type of purchase. It's for someone who wants to very proudly show off a guitar. Satin finish allows the shine ofor the guitar to look even better. Also, Sunburst finishes will look bad if they don't completely match the guitar that's presented

I have hung my guitars on the wall for years, not one issue, not even a close call. I have music room in the basement, bought hanger brackets from Lowe’s that they make for hanging rakes and brooms in the garage. Drilled a hole in the concrete, put an anchor in, and screwed the hanger in. Those hangers that hardware stores sell for take and brooms fit perfectly for guitars. Give it a try sometime Austin! Also, I am not a very handy person when it comes to projects and I did it with ease, so don’t think you have to be a carpenter to do some of this stuff.

US$200? The most I've ever spent on a guitar stand is the equivalent of US$7, for a cheap little metal A-frame stand. It's more stable than that pretty Gibson stand: the guitar's weight rests on padded supports an inch above the floor instead of being dangled by the headstock from 45 inches up. The Gibson stand needs to be where it can't get knocked over, like in a display case -- except in earthquake-prone California, where it might not be safe even then.

If you were to put it in a more permanent spot, it wouldn’t be anything to bevel some screw holes in the base.

I spent an hour polishing it with lighter fluid to minimize the stain. No joke, I was livid. I had to modify all of them to protect the necks. Obviously, you are going to have a harder time seeing a dark finish/wood neck start to change. The neck I had begin to change was the vintage Fender yellow nitro finished maple.
