A handmade wooden guitar stand for instruments worth displaying.
Designed and made in Britain, Hangar turns your guitar or bass into part of the room, safely supported, beautifully displayed, and always within reach.
Crafted from premium hardwoods, it combines secure support with a clean, furniture-like form, giving your instrument a proper place in the room.
What is Hangar?
Hangar is a handmade wooden guitar stand for the instrument you reach for most.
Made from real hardwood and fitted with a secure yoke, it keeps your guitar or bass safely held, easy to reach, and properly displayed.
Not hidden in a case. Not leaning in a corner. Just part of the space around it.
Who is Hangar for?
Hangar is for players who want their instrument close, visible and ready to play.
It works in a home, studio, office, teaching room or music space, wherever a guitar deserves something better than a folding metal stand. It also makes a considered gift for a guitarist, especially with custom engraving added to the base.
What makes Hangar different?
Hangar was designed by guitar makers, not as stage gear, but as a proper place for an instrument to live when it is not being played.
Each stand is made from real hardwood, finished by hand and fitted with a genuine String Swing yoke for secure support. Simple, stable and made to complement the instrument it holds.
Held securely, displayed properly
Each Hangar uses a genuine String Swing yoke with a deep cradle design, helping your guitar or bass sit securely in place. The yoke pivots to suit different headstock shapes, keeping the instrument hanging naturally.
Made personal
Add custom engraving to the base with a name, short message, logo or simple graphic. It makes Hangar a more personal piece for a home, studio or gift.
You can enter text when ordering, or upload artwork for us to engrave.
Made from real hardwood
Hangar is made from selected hardwoods, including English, European and reclaimed timber, chosen for strength, stability and natural character.
Each stand is finished in natural oil, allowing the grain, colour and figure of the timber to remain visible.
No two pieces of wood are exactly the same, so every Hangar has its own variation in grain, tone and figure.
Designed to belong in the room
Hangar is not a folding metal stand or plastic stage gear. It is a piece of furniture for your instrument: simple, stable and understated enough for a home, studio, office or music room.
Available in three sizes, Hangar is made for guitars, basses, baritones and extended-range instruments.
Choose the right Hangar for your instrument
Hangar – for standard electric and acoustic guitars
Hangar XL – for short-scale bass & baritone guitars
Hangar XXL – for long-scale bass & baritone guitars
Available in Oak, Cherry and Ash
Not sure which one you need?
Measure from the point where the headstock sits in the yoke to the bottom of the instrument.
A proper gift for a guitarist
For the player who already has the guitar, Hangar gives them a better way to live with it.
Handmade from real hardwood, available in different sizes and finishes, and optionally engraved, it feels considered rather than generic.

Hangar Guitar Stand FAQs
The Hangar uses the String Swing yoke which is covered by a material that will not eat into the nitro of your guitar like most foams and rubbers do. Fender, Gibson, and Martin, all use the String Swing products in their showrooms, and for trade shows on their standard and high nitro finished guitars. However, there are some things that are out of our control that prevent us from putting an unconditional guarantee that no marking will ever occur.
1. If an issue does arise there is no definite way for us to tell if the marks were caused by our products or if they were from a previously used product from another manufacturer.
2. If you have used a guitar polish, be sure it is wiped off before you use our products. There is conflicting information on the internet as to whether polish is ever necessary or not. Also, along these same lines, do not use any chemical cleaners on our padding material. A damp cloth is fine if needed.
3. Guitars being stored in any sunlight can be a big problem, regardless of what material is being used in resting the guitar.
4. Nitro finish remains partially a liquid for its lifetime, so extended periods of time any significant pressure on the finish can result in pressure marks almost like a smear. This is worsened if the guitar was not given proper cure time when the finished was applied.
All of this being said we still have the safest material on the market for a nitro finished guitar and thousands of people trust hanging them every day. Also, if you have a nitro white Gibson, or Epiphone we have white yokes that we recommend for these extremely colour sensitive finishes. If you decide to choose our products to display your guitars, for your peace of mind, we suggest that you check your guitars occasionally to be assured of their safety.
The Hangar is designed to accommodate most of the popular makes and models. To find the correct Hangar for your instrument, measure the distance from the lower part of the headstock (where it would sit in the yoke), to the tail of the instrument. Most guitars will fall within the 89.5cm clearance of the original Hangar. The clearance on the Hangar XL is 98cm, while the XXL has 116.5cm clearance. The XL & XXL will accommodate most baritone and bass guitars.
Lifetime Structural Warranty
Your display unit is warranted against defects in material and workmanship for its lifetime provided the following:
The unit is purchased from an authorized dealer or direct from the manufacturer.
The unit is used for what its name implies it should be used for.
The unit has not been altered in any way, or damaged by misuse.
The unit is properly installed as stated in the Installation Instructions. (The warranty is provided only to the original purchaser.)
Yes! The yoke is designed to pivot so that no matter what type of headstock design your instrument has, the hanger will keep the instrument completely vertical. We recommend turning the yoke all the way into the fixture and giving it a 1/2 turn back out, so it can freely pivot to adjust to the instrument’s headstock style.
