well here is a good question when you are not playing your guitar or guitars how do you store them, do you leave them out on stand, just leaning on a  wall or in a  case....

for me when ever they are not being used i keep them in a case... keeps dust off them and protects them...

I was always told to not leave them in the case because it hurts the wood somehow, humidity i think...   It might just be for acoustice and semi-hollow's..

I always store them on there wall hooks.

I have one on a wall hook in my studio, one on a floor stand and the rest in cases. They get alternated on the wall and floor stands so none of them get jealous   lamez

Mine are generally kept cased, with one or two occasionally left out.  The ones at the office and a couple at home are cased and set on end, I also have a few cased that are horizontal under my bed, but with those you have to be careful not to stack more than 2 or 3 deep.

I lent a guitar to a friend, he had it leaning on the wall of his bedroom, it fell..... cracked the headstock almost completely off.
