How do you storage your guitars?

I moved to the Vegas area four years ago and quickly realized that maintaining the moisture level with humidifiers in my guitar cases in a 10% humidity environment is no fun task. So i converted a walk in closet to my guitar storage room. I chose the Hercules GSP38WB/GSP39WB hangers. They have worked well with no issues.

Here's a write up on my humidifier journey: https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/my-humidifier-journey.121301/#post-1658768

I wanted a system that allowed me to put my guitars on a wall, but in a more efficient way, as I don't have that much wall space, so they had to be mounted sideways.

Since this system required some drilling and I didn't want to turn my wall into Swiss cheese I opted to fix the brackets to a wooden board and mount that board instead to the wall, as that would require less holes to drill. I'm not a big fan of rack stands anymore as I find those to increase wear and tear on my guitar builds.
I did the same thing for the exact same reason :)

Except my hangers aren't the fancy right-angle ones that you have...
 
Whenever I see a band on stage place their guitars like that I always go WTF, dudes, you couldn't even spring a couple of bucks to buy a couple of guitar stands? Beer money is a bigger priority? And in your case, you can afford an Axe FX, but not guitar stands? :p
 
If they don't get played they get sold.

A sound policy, but what is the timelimit on that? Or the limit in general. Some people say more then three is too many guitars, others draw the line much higher. I know a guy who has almost a 100.

Check out String Swing's slat wall rail hanging systems. I've got 12 feet of this stuff in my office.

Thanks so much for this @Admin M@!!! This is a perfect solution for me!! Modular, expandable and customizable, inexpensive and functional!!! I will make a double 'wall' similar to what @Muad'zin has here.....I have a bunch of the 10-guitar Hercules stands but with over 50 guitars, these are no longer the best solution. These slat walls will work perfectly! Thank you!! Any pic of your arrangement so I can get some ideas?
 
All mine is hanging on the walls. For quick grab'n'play. Most guitars are on the slant walls:

I use Woodies Guitar hangers on the slant walls in between the absorbers: http://www.woodieshanger.com

Works really well and don't have that "storage" vibe. I want the music/guitar room to be a cozy and creative place. Not "storage".
Looks like you set up your studio in the cockpit of the Millenium Falcon!
