Anyone seen this Fender 7 guitar rack?

I know there are cheaper options out there but this looks so nice.

Anyone know if they are sturdy pieces of kit?

Might have to add it to the want list...

I had the Stagg 5 guitar case which is very similar and cost me £51.  £199 is bit pricey ..

GAK do the 8 way for £102.

@bogwhoppit - great common sense suggestion - I was seduced by the tweed and plush red lining!

What is brazen? I need a guitar storage solution as I have a baby due in two weeks - in three months time I'll be giving up the only spare bedroom for her...I need to store about 15 guitars or thin the herd.

It's a good solution. 

I'm in the same situation (I "only" have 5 guitars) & this was the only way to keep my guitars from being stored in their cases under the bed- once they're under there, they NEVER get played. 

My top tip- get one with a lip on it, this means that when your wee one rams their walker into it theres less likely to be any damage to your guitars.

Cheers @stimpsonslostson I was even thinking I could store it facing the wall so little uns can't vandalise the guitars! A bit more akward when retrieving them to play no doubt but better protection!

Need the Mrs to buy into the idea next!

The styling

I buy the Chord ones for £21 delivered off ebay. Just ordered another today taking me up to 6 of them.

A dozen hangers would be cheaper if you can drill into yer walls...

more protection from little one and doesn't take up floor space.

Thanks chaps -I've had hangers in the past but the new place and decor doesn't really lend itself to it.

@johnonguitar you have still lost me! Perhaps you should shorten your responses; keep them nice and succinct so I can work out your point!

I think he's referring to the styling being brazen..  perhaps referring it to a furniture piece designed for the moulin rouge...

Ah ok - I'm a bit thick you see and need things spelling out... I liked the red I must have bad taste!

Very overpriced.

Looks good next to a Laura Ashley sofa though.

Well, if you're willing to spend that kinda money on a mass-produced job why not go the whole hog and get something custom? http://www.stand-made.co.uk/home/4581756642

That thing looks like a 1970s church pew.

They all look like nice stands, but I'm not sure I'd want my guitars in one even now, and my kids are 9, 10 and 11; apart from some old bitsas I leave out, everything else is in a case of some sort
