Hercules Upgraded AGS Guitar Hanger

Jeff Martin • January 2019Top Gear • January 23, 2019

Hercules has changed the stand game with their Upgraded AGS Guitar Stand so it would “stand” to reason [Ouch… – Ed.] that the wall-mounted version would be similarly effective.

There’s not a whole lot that’s different than the guitar stand version other than the fact that this is wall-mountable. The wooden base is simple and tastefully cut. Mechanically, the AGS system has been tweaked from previous models to allow for a wider range of instruments. Also included are the NINA (Narrow Instrument Neck Adjustment), which can be slipped on to make the arms thicker, so you can put a violin or ukulele, or you can leave them off to accommodate your more standard guitars, basses, and cellos. Unlike most wall mounts, the Auto Grip System locks into place when the instrument comes to rest inside the yoke and when the instrument is lifted, it releases easily. The yoke swivels to accommodate different types of necks so it’s a one-size-fits-all system.

The finish of the instrument is protected at all contact points by a proprietary foam rubber coating. The black plastic yoke gives it a modern feel while almost all moving parts remain invisible at a quick glance.

At an affordable price point, this guitar hanger offers superior craftsmanship without breaking the bank allowing a player to mount all their guitars on the wall in an elegant yet modern fashion.
