Best guitar wall hangers. Recommendations please.

Time to rearrange at home and get some guitars on walls.  Recommendations please ideally with links to purchase (UK/EU).  Thank you.

Hercules, got mine from amazon. Cheapest and easiest. 

You can do the google work and I’ll check it when you’re done

octatonic

String Swing for me.

I use Hercules ones. They've been up for years and never had a problem with them

(except when I nearly pulled one out the wall while accidently using one for leverage to get into the loft - Stupid idea, but it was the wall that gave way not the hanger )

@Gassage had some in the Classifieds recently.

100 % Hercules for me - don't mark the guitars

The Hercules ones are excellent.  I've never had an issue with one failing or marking a guitar.

If you have nitro-finished guitars you should probably stick to Hercules or Konig & Meyer.

Another vote for the Hercules wall hangers. Been using mine for years and they are rock solid and have never left a mark. Here is what I use: https://www.stringsdirect.co.uk/accessories-c2/stands-and-hangers-c70/hercules-gsp38wb-plus-short-arm-wooden-block-guitar-wall-hanger-p7006

What are you guys using to fix the Hercules hanger to plasterboard walls?

Had Hercules as well. Feel decent quality and protect the guitar

A stud. I wouldn't otherwise.

I can't find any info of above guitar but it's certainly interesting.

I've tried lots of different ones and to me they are basically all the same, just avoid the all plastic ones.
The only thing that matters is how well it's put it up. 

Sparky

Hercules

Konig & Mayer for me - I have 6 of them, that have been up for 10 years now.  They don't mark guitar finishes.

Install them properly, preferably on a masonry wall, and you won't have any trouble with them.

Even on plasterboard walls, I've had no dramas with Hercules ones.  IIRC I used these, or something similar, last time...

@TINMAN82 For fixing to plasterboard you should try these:

They're being advertised loads in all my local wholesalers and builder's merchants and get good reviews. Bit expensive for general use but for a few guitar hangers should be good.

Of course, a stud would be much better.
