Not to mention the sheer clunkiness of it!I see bad things happening with this design.

Uke,
Your comment about the clunkiness of guitar stands reminded me why I don't use them.
I have six guitars, which are always kept in humidified cases.
I considered either buying or building a six-case stand, but in the end decided against it, as unnecessary, and a waste of space.
And stands that hold uncased guitars are to my mind just accidents waiting to happen.
I find it safer and easier to keep the cases on the floor arranged in two rows of three each.
Looking at the stand in GGJ's photo just gives me the shivers.

That's weird. I don't think I've ever seen one like that. Points for being an interesting try anyway.
One thing in it's favor is that it's stable on the floor. No one (or pet) is going to be knocking that over accidentally. On the other hand, yeah, the obvious...

I think three hooks across that empty wall in the background is a better idea!
Probably the safest is cases, and some cases are better than others. I mean, I can see an argument among the casers which case is better. Guitars can get knocked off some wall hooks as well, trust me on that one, I learned the hard way. I can see that stand working if you have three really special guitars that you want on display and you aren't going to play them.
Mine seem to free range a lot when they are at home. My only problem with keeping them in cases is that I really don't have that regimental discipline that it takes to get them back to wherever the case is and put them back in it.

I agree. I always keep my guitars in cases -- even my solid body guitars. No guitar is safe around my clumsy self, let alone my dog who has no appreciation for nice guitars. And, I have no guitars hanging on the walls (or animal heads either
).
Well, at least there are no Guilds on that thing!
I assume that's custom-made? I've never seen one before in any music catalog or store...
Oh wait - there is a resemblance
