Afternoon, Merry Christmas!
I hope you're all having a great day, I just want to ask. I want to get a foam board that will hold my guitar on the wall, it's a Les Paul Epiphone
This is the foam I would like to use:

For the record, my guitar weighs 4.5 Kg. And the hook weighs 281 g.
Do you think that it would be able to hold?
Thanks in advance, if you don't think that it can hold, then would you be able to recommend a material that isn't completely over expensive.
This entire ordeal is purely aesthetics and finally, if this is in the wrong section I apologise. This is my first post. Thanks!

It also depends on how it's mounted and how closely spaced the battens it's attached to are - and how far the hanger holds the guitar away from the wall since that will alter the twisting force on the mounts.
Sorry, not a straightforward answer I know!
