As a musician, I will say that you should definitely do as you said you might - add taller rubber feet to the bottom and wrap leather around the wooden dowels at the bottom so the finish doesn't scratch on the wood. Also, small straps to your neck holders so that if you do happen to bump your stand or any guitar in it, they wont accidentally fall out. It will also allow you to pick the stand up and move everything together for cleaning or re-arranging purposes. Though, taking out the guitars is still recommended. Ha ha!

Good suggestions. Another reason for raising it further off the floor is to allow for guitars with endpin jacks (electro acoustics), especially when you forget to pull the plug out...

Love the combination of wood, metal, and leather. It looks great.

Great video. I just " discovered" your channel last night. Binged watched your videos for about 8 hours. The timing is perfect. Now that I have a lot of free time, I'm converting my 12x16 shed into a proper but small workshop. I added heat, insulation and better lighting. I have most of the basics as far as tools. I'm still trying to find a layout that works for me. Regardless, this will probably be my first project when I figure it out. Thanks for the great content.

That way everything is held exactly where it should be and the tap moves as linearly without a jig or just eyeballing it.

You just solved something I’ve been mentally trying to capture for a while - making a rack that’s expandable and reconfigurable in case your guitar collection changes. As someone with lots of guitars but who also loves trading and getting new ones, I appreciate not having to make a new rack every few years! Great job!

Thanks for the great video. I built a similar stand but entirely out of 1" square tube steel. I then used silicon weather stripping as cushion for the guitars. It works great and has not harmed the finish. It was really inexpensive as the steel was scrap from a different project. I appreciate the great quality of your videos.

This looks great! Using the wrench to hold the rubber feet while cutting them down is such a good tip. Everything's a clamp!

Mine is not nearly as pretty as his but I would not call myself an accomplished woodworker so I'm proud of what I have accomplished so far.

I agree. Surely leather dye (or any dye) is likely to leach into some wood finishes, particularly wax and cellulose lacquer. I guess undyed leather would be good, though.

What a great use of alum extrusion. Really cool design and I love the simplicity of the wood holders. I only have one guitar, but definitely have learned something and will use it for other applications. Of course it's easy to give ideas after watching this, but for anyone interested, I think it would be cool to have a small tenon in the back of the holders to keep it in line with the extrusion. I also think just cutting the cross hatch but leaving the leather on like a flap would "conceal" the screw head. Thanks ILMTS team!

Awesome! I made something similar for my guitars. I just used pipe insulation to easily wrap the bottom dowels and now my guitars have a cushy seat.

@@calinguga If you can help, or at the least link me some tutorials to better understand guitar wiring, that'll be absolutely amazing! The setup is inspired by this two-piece band, Local H, where the lead guitarist puts a single p-bass pickup at an angle under the EA strings, and wires it up to its own volume knob and a second output jack, then plays that through an octave pedal for an emulated bass sound. I'm thinking of taking it a step further having two pickups, the p-bass pickup under EA and a single coil at the neck position, both on a 3-way switch so it can go from just "2 string emulated bass" to 6 string. While all that's going on, I'd still have a single-coil bridge pick-up wired to volume/tone and its own output jack. My dad and I built a strat-styled body from basswood, so we can still route it out as needed, and we'll be making a custom pickguard. I haven't yet learned enough about wiring to feel confident figuring it out myself.

A few years ago, I went through a guitar stand design phase that was more frustrating than productive. I did how ever, come up with a prototype but left it at that. It's a simple enough design for multiple guitars. I built a rectangle with scrape cabinet drawers from a kitchen remodel I did . I removed the bottom or the floor of the drawer and the front drawer face and handle. I had some other scrape kitchen chairs that I used the back support ribs and arms. Anyway to make a long story short, I filled the rectangle with slats to separate each guitar. It fits four they sit in a slot and lean back slightly. No other support just the bottom portion of the guitar is in contact with a slat (for lack of a better word) in front and in back and the side rails. Getting the height adjusted so the guitars wouldn't bottom out was the most time consuming and difficult part of the build. Great to see a video on guitar stands. I had a similar one like yours but needed a portable folding type that wouldn't take up room in the van and end up in the dumpster after it got destroyed from the other equipment smashing it. Thank you, be safe, love and light to all...

I like the wood and aluminium extrusion combinations 👍

Awesome video! I would recommend adding a piece of material or foam to the bottom rods where the guitars rest. Over time, using those rods as an anchor to turn the guitars will eventually scratch the finish off them. Cool build though, I think it’s time to. For me to make on for myself!

Cherry may burn easily, but it smells pretty sweet when it does. Also, just before you mentioned using the forstner bit, I was thinking he should drill that out with a hole cutter to make them uniform. Good stuff as always Bob!

That looks really cool! I want to build a rack to hold 5-7 HEMA swords and this is a nice template I can kinda follow!

amazing. I am actually in need of one too, I only wish I had the tools and skills to make one for myself. I'll likely just end up buying one, though...

Cool project and one I'm likely to build for my son's guitars. One suggestion. Though its a bit of a pain, installing a dado blade in your table saw and using it for the half laps will result in a much better outcome than using the bandsaw and chisels. And as for the adjustable neck pieces, I'll be finding a way to accomplish those with a router template to insure complete uniformity.

Loved the Bill and Ted reference at the end!
