Never posted before, so take it as you will, but here are a couple minor things off the top of my head:

I'm not great with layout and the best flow of the room, but one suggestion is to move the bookshelf to the other side of the room (assuming there's enough room on that wall). That'll open up the entry to the room.

Assuming you keep the furniture layout about the same, generally tidiness will make a room automatically look better. You're also gonna wanna clean up the stuff on the back shelf. If you get yourself a bedside table, possibly with a drawer, that keep things neater. If you're going to buy something, pick up a new desk. Not only will it look nicer, but could also give you drawers to hide some of the stuff that is out and block the tower. Can even check your local Craigslist, plenty of nice desks for cheap on there. I got a real nice solid wood desk used for under $100. Also could get a floor lamp next to the desk in the corner.

The second major part is to get some stuff on those walls. You say you're a music fan, there are some classy looking music/band posters out there, but just make sure you frame them! You can also get a wall mount for that guitar, which not only adds a little flair to the wall but also frees up some floor space. Another quick fix would be to get some well fitting curtains on the window. The DIY part there would be to install a curtain rod, but that's not too hard.

Just my two cents, anyone else can chime in if they have anything else. Good luck!

For anyone looking for a $10 stand but isnt near an IKEA, this is what I use.

u/mtrixman · 6 pointsr/boostedboards

From left to right, the boards are the Tan Tien, Dervish Sama, Icarus, and the Boosted Board. Tan Tien and Dervish Sama are more of my cruising boards with the Icarus a carving board. I mostly ride the Dervish and my wife rides the Tan Tien (since it's smaller). Also bought and returned the Loaded Overland (didn't like it as much)

The stands are the guitar stands from Amazon mentioned here a lot. Here is the link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LBKFYUO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I tried out different trucks and wheels and found the orangatang 80a to be the best for me (same as on the Boosted Board). The 2 on the left have Caliber II trucks. I like the Caliber trucks since they spring back to neutral position quickly which is great for cruising and is very stable. The Icarus is meant for carving so it has looser Paris v2 trucks. I tried the 80mm Orangatang Kegal wheels on these boards and always managed to get wheelbite (and thus crashing) so I went with 70mm wheels and can ride without worrying

Nose and tail guards also from Amazon. Highly recommended as these went flying into the curb a few times and no damage to the board: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XGJ8PHM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s03?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Hope this helps!

u/PacoRocco6 · 6 pointsr/boostedboards

Top Stage Pro Universal Guitar Stand: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00LBKFYUO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_FL.UzbZFXXAA6

$11 from Amazon. It's perfect for the board.

u/cmagnuson · 6 pointsr/boostedboards

I've made a couple comments in the past that you can check out for gear recommendations:
https://old.reddit.com/r/boostedboards/comments/993v45/mini_x_arriving_today_commuter_gear/e4l7smn/

https://old.reddit.com/r/boostedboards/comments/8vx25x/about_to_pull_the_trigger_on_a_mini_x_what_gear/e1r37d6/

I've also found this long list, but it contains some products I wouldn't recommend purchasing, so use cautiously.

Regarding a rack, simply purchase a cheap guitar stand. They do an excellent job at holding a board while not in use.

Regarding bash guards, Flatland 3D is by far the best option.

Regarding water, avoid it like the plague. If the Boosted Board has an enemy, that enemy is moisture. Even a small amount of moisture is enough to gum up the bearings and ruin motors. I used to keep my board in the bathroom and even though I always kept the window open, the humidity from showering caused one of the motors to go bad. Plus, riding on wet pavement is a great way to fall off your board. The pavement becomes slicker than ice.

u/vxcosmicowl · 4 pointsr/femalelivingspace

It's a cute place with good bones- but I see what you mean!

First thing's first, don't be in a rush. There's no need to go buying a bunch of extra stuff just to fill space.

My advice would be to start with what you have already:

  • Unpack/clean up any boxes sitting around full of stuff. Clear off your fireplace area

  • Find a place for things like the Febreeze that isn't 'sitting out in the open' Any cabinet will work :)

  • Make the bed, hang/fold clothes in their proper spaces. Even if you want to get an external closet rack that's fine, just don't leave it draped over everything.

  • Rotate the coffee table and rug so the long side faces the main couch and pull the couch out closer to the doorway. The lounge side is great for creating a barrier and separating the space into two rooms! But you've got it pushed too far into the wall so it makes the space feel claustrophobic

  • I see a guitar beside the couch, get a wall mount (like this) and hang it on the wall (above or beside the couch maybe?). Still easy access, but now it brings some interest to the room

  • In the bedroom, rotate the little bench next to the nightstand so it sits under the window

    Now for things you will want to add (slowly):

  • Some candles! Don't need all that febreeze if you get a nicely scented candle (you can get a manly smell like 'Woodland' by Bath & Body Works, or 'Teakwood' or something just clean) Throw a candle on the coffee table or on that fireplace surface.

  • Throw pillows for the couch. Even just one or two that have a different color or texture will be nice.

  • Art! Maybe it's movie posters, or thrift store paintings or pages cut out of a pretty calendar, but hang something up on the walls. Frames don't have to be expensive but I always recommend them if you're going the poster route

  • Plants will add a touch of life to the place, even easy care plants like a succulent or a cactus or some bamboo. It doesn't need to be a huge investment, but a decent pot will do wonders too- get it in a color or pattern you like!



    Overall, the space just needs some personality and an appeal for the senses. Adding some colors, some smells and some new textures will really elevate it without breaking the bank!

u/SammaSunshine · 4 pointsr/CraftyTrolls

My ex had 3-4 guitars when we lived together. We used the guitar wall hangers that you need to screw into the wall. The only thing I found so far online that would keep your boyfriend's guitars out of the way is this one, which can hold them while hanging inside a closet so if his place has good closet space this could be a good idea?

u/proudgary · 3 pointsr/Guitar

You're right, the instrument does not factor in as much as one's interest. Totally right.

Of the packages listed, the first Yamaha one for $159 looks very nice. You'd definitely get more than your money out of it. Yamaha has a great rep. for longevity.

I own this Rogue for $79 and love it to death. I taught Grade 6 and students were allowed to play whenever they wanted - it never got any rest from students or teachers.
I'd get this Snark tuner, this guitar strap, these strings, this string winder, and finally this stand. Oh, and these thin picks.

That gives you a grand total of $119.24. I've either owned or used all of these products and can vouch for them.

Now, the other thing I'm thinking of... there's this instructional book on Google Books, where you get the first 64 pages for free. It's a great resource, but the name escapes me. If I think of it, I'll write back. I hope this helps.

u/thiswasandy · 3 pointsr/boostedboards

I use this one:

ChromaCast CC-MINIGS Universal Folding Guitar Stand with Secure Lock https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BU9KCXK?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf

u/itshoogardun · 3 pointsr/boostedboards

I think it's this one- I bought it in anticipation of getting my board soon. So while I can't say how it holds up with a BB on it, it definitely seems pretty sturdy and like it will do a great job.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00LBKFYUO/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1478089479&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=top+stage+pro+universal+guitar+stand&dpPl=1&dpID=41ri7%2BXS7LL&ref=plSrch

u/rolfraikou · 3 pointsr/DesignMyRoom

Ok, he's my still ghetto but much much less depressing method.

Sleep on the boxes, just cover them up with more fabric. $10

Get the hanging shit off the ceiling, it looks creepy. $0

Go to ikea, don't get a fancy desk. Screw those, they fall apart, and are more difficult to move if they stay together. They have a modular desk system. This is the main surface, and these cheap bastards are the legs.

Very easy to take apart.

Desk: $25 + tax. Let's just say $30.

Now get two or three of these LED strips. At $17 each, these things are pretty cheap. Don't use the adhesive on the back, it's meant to be permanent. Just use another method to attach them to your ceiling in a sort of back and forth zig-zag or S pattern.

If you got three of these, you have ample lighting in your room, two backup-up power supplies if one fails, and three remotes. Use two of those temporary "command-strips" to put two remotes on the wall, one next to your entrance, the other next to your bed, then leave the third as a regular remote. You can now control the lighting, and the entire color of your room from anywhere. I actually hung them slightly low, and pointed them at the ceiling, creating a sort of ambient lighting, and less glare from the individual diodes.

LED ceiling $51 + command strips, and whatever means you use to hang them about $60.

Posters are cheap. 3 posters from target = $22

A cool cube clothing organizer. This is also very modular, and has those doors to keep it from looking too trashy. $67

Put your guitar on this guitar stand. $15

If you have big headphones (I don't see any. If you use earbuds/iems then ignore this) then put this banana holder on your desk. They are perfect for holding headphones, and look cool while doing it. $12

At this point, I've gone slightly over budget it. My guess is around $216 total for all of the above.

Big comfy chairs are huge, and expensive. I suggest checking the free section of craigslist for something like recliners. Just make sure they're bug-free, throw those in there, and throw them away or give them away when you move.

I got lucky, and eventually got a pretty light comfy chair that I do actually move with me now, using this method.

u/SlickNickles · 3 pointsr/giantbomb

Guitar hanger. Got this one on amazon and it works perfectly.

u/LeLeopold · 3 pointsr/InteriorDesign

Yeah, maybe get a few of these

And get that White Falcon on display!

u/thefrettinghand · 3 pointsr/Bass

I looked in my gig bag for inspiration - it turns out that I just have way too much shit in there, most of which is under £15. Cheaper DIY options offered where applicable:

  • The snark SN2 clip-on tuner. Absolute must-have.
  • A decent multi-tool
  • Allan Key Set if the multi-tool doesn't have the right sizes (metric is normal unless you play something made across the pond, but in case you need imperial, and have lots of space in your gig bag)
  • Dunlop strap locks are a solid addition to any bassist's set-up
  • Some fret-fast (I'm too lazy and disorganised to get new strings very often - you could just sub a rag and white mineral oil, but this is a convenient little package)
  • A couple of spare 9V batteries for your bass, or your (more likely your guitarist's) pedals
  • A fold-away bass stand that you can take to practices, comes in just over budget, but is a good addition and folds up to about the size of a tube of Pringles
  • Some cheap bric-a-brac like electrical tape, gaffer tape, write-on-anything pens - all good additions
  • A decent set of ear-plugs to protect your hearing
  • Foldaway music stand if you ever play with sheet music; alternatively, if you have a car or are near public transport then this guy might be more bang for your buck; light in case you have one and play in dark venues sometimes and bag in case, like me, you're always leaving the house on gig-day carrying too much
  • Patch cables if you use several stomp-boxes or rack units
  • Cable ties to stop your cables getting mangled (can always use zip-ties instead - less neat but much cheaper)
  • A cheap soldering iron is not essential, but it will be good to have one for that odd occasion where you need it - I've actually been in situations where I've saved some poor soul's night (occasionally mine) by having one of these on my person
  • Owning a padded guitar strap has saved me much back pain over the years.
  • A decent torch for last-minute backstage repairs and adjustments, lighting your pedalboard, etc

    Conspicuous consumerism at its finest, ladies and gents.
u/ProBaddiE · 2 pointsr/ElectricSkateboarding

You can use a guitar stand to prop it up in a corner. I got one from Amazon for around 8 bucks, although it seems to have gotten a bit more expensive. Fit my Ownboard W1 without doing anything to the stand itself. I also think it's a pretty awesome way to display your board at the same time :D.

u/BLAHBLAHneeb · 2 pointsr/onewheel

I got this one:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01C5G2TQY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_4thCDb1V2QJ9G

Looks like there are other cheaper ones as well. I’d just be sure you get one with bending arms, I had to bend mine more narrow so they properly fit the Pint.

u/fatbottomedgirls · 2 pointsr/malelivingspace

I would hang that stringed instrument on the wall and pick up some simple frames for your posters. Perhaps also pick up some book ends and de-clutter your books and stuff over the desk.

Did you mount the TV yourself? The fact that there aren't a bunch of cords visible is a nice touch for a college kid.

u/GETitOFFmeNOW · 2 pointsr/Luthier

I was looking at some of these. There's one for $79 I think is actually pretty nice.

Thanks for the links! I might actually try that double strap. What a cool idea!

u/briandt75 · 2 pointsr/PSVR

For about $20 you can get this:

String Swing CC01K-BW Guitar... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00A2WZJDE?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

To hang your headset on.

And these:

Mag Instrument MAGASXD026 D-Cell... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00002N9ER?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

To hold your move controllers.

u/Blu3Skies · 2 pointsr/AmateurRoomPorn

u/ChuckEye · 2 pointsr/Guitar

How about this option? http://www.amazon.com/MBrace-MBR-1-Mbrace-Guitar-Holder/dp/B005IHLSTM

Screws on top of a mic stand, attaches to your strap buttons to hold the weight.

u/Testiculese · 2 pointsr/Guitar
  1. Yes.

  2. 1x4 is fine. You're mounting the board to the studs, so you will have way more strength than necessary. (Hanger sizes are typically 4" tall, 1x4's are 3/4" x 3.5", so you will probably need to get a 1x6 and rip it down to size)

  3. Lay the board, then your guitars, on the floor and mark your distances. Decide for yourself if equal spacing (despite the difference in body widths) or custom spacing works for you. Of course, don't forget a few inches between each body so you're not knocking them around when going on/off the wall. If you don't have carpet, then a folded towel under each body will protect it while you're spacing, and lets you slide it around.

  4. Standard wall hanger at the music store. I bought this style from my local shop. You might want the locking style if kids are present.

  5. Certain woods stain better than others. Certain woods take stain differently, and give better/worse colors.

  6. I'd recommend a flat pad of some sort to mount where the body would hit the wall if bumped, or sloppily put on the wall. I have a square pad that goes on a very small table for mine. In the past, I've used a circular rubber bumper (kinda like a door handle stop bumper that mounts to the wall) with the soft velcro half glued to it.
u/[deleted] · 2 pointsr/Guitar
u/ms-lorem-ipsum · 2 pointsr/declutter

i agree with /u/cursethedarkness/ so i have a few suggestions for ideas

also, go vertical for your guitar

You will get a more room in your wardrobe once you fold things properly. Keep all your grooming products in small basket

Keep all your paper organizer, again go vertical.

your wallet, glasses, keys, bags and jacket should go on one of this by the BD door. (i used to take them with me to my room and lose them all the time)

Whats bothering you about the wire basket? it looks like a lot bulky items not properly arranged and small boxes/packaging. If you would get other areas organized im pretty sure you wouldnt need to have that in the room.

Also, can you stack the bookcases? it would save you much more room.

Question, do you have any love for dvd, cds and old games? would you miss them if gone? we live in a digital age so there is that to think about. If you really want to keep them consider moving them to above the wardrobe maybe, if they are not regularly used there is no need for them to be in such an accessible place.

EDIT: crap, i just read you are bone-broke, sorry ... well, even old boxes are good for organizing and avoiding the floor raising clutter piles.

u/RazzleThemAll · 2 pointsr/DesignMyRoom

Hi there. This room is already in good condition. The closet is awesome with a perfect amount of room for your clothes and everything else that you want to store. You just need to clean it up, fine a home for your belongings in there and then always put them away. What you do need there are doors, or at least curtains. For that minimal feel, if doors, aren't an option (these are preferable), then I'd suggest white-ish neutral curtains. Something like this. Your room will instantly feel less hectic if you make that area not visible.

In your ideal description, you make no mention of needing a TV, so I'd get rid of that huge armoire and TV in there. The things you need from it can be put in the closet. Now you have more room for your activities. I like where your bed is and I'd keep that there. The corner that has your acoustic guitar seems like a good place for your music. I'd invest in a couple of these and hang your guitars on the wall there, with the amp on the floor below them. Now you have room for a desk along the wall where the TV was. I'd suggest getting something narrow and long, as the space is limited there. I like this one. It's got some drawers to put desk items in. Fr a desk chair, I'd get something like this one in solid gray. Lastly, I'd probably get a new rug. The one you have looks like it's had it. Probably something more modern like this as it's on hella sale. Keeping the colors light, neutral and clean will help to let your brain take a rest when you're in your room (and you pick up after yourself). These changes are minimal and would cost around $436.95 without tax and shipping.

u/ProgHog231 · 2 pointsr/Bass

Yeah if you have room for only one, then you're probably safer with a bass combo. The problem will be that you can't then get guitar niceties like pleasing overdrive.

Not sure what your layout is, but you might be able to free up some space in a couple of ways:

  • Hang your guitars - I use the wall-mounted Hercules hangers, but if you can't drill into the walls there are options like this: https://www.amazon.com/Guitar-Hanger-1001-Original-Closet/dp/B002NPCISC
  • If you're just practicing, then a small combo like the Fender Rumble 25 or Ampeg BA108 may be fine. There's even the Fly 3, but I have never played one.
  • Depending on your budget for a bass combo, consider one that is large enough for you to place your guitar amp on top of; front-mounted controls would be a plus, although they are less common;
  • Don't get an amp, but use a computer interface instead...you'll need some decent headphones, though.

u/J_Bot_9 · 2 pointsr/boostedboards

-This is a good idea to get so you don't scuff up the board early on. Otherwise I wouldn't mod anything until your first 100 miles.

Surf Co Tail Guard (Choose Color & Size) (Black, Regular) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0779F2DWH/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_LyrmDb8MRF48S

-Definitely get a guitar stand as well. (you'll have to bend the it up a bit so the tail isn't sitting on the ground

NO sign of tipping over. I think Koowheel is also ~16 lbs so should work fine. I got mine for ~10 bucks, but it's soared since then. But really, any other ones should work fine too and if it doesn't just return say it can't support your instrument. XD

u/diybone · 1 pointr/Guitar

I have bought some "String Swing" wall hangers for a few guitars and even a Ukulele (I know they are much lighter) and they seem very well built. The wood is good quality and it comes with drywall hangers. Sans hanging on them with your own body weight, they would hold just about anything.

Hardly innovative, but it does fold nicely, but not $60 nicely. Here are similar ones for $11, and made by Fender, electric, acoustic

For a gig, bringing a guitar stand isn't a big deal because if you're going to need one, you'll most likely be driving there.

For transparency, I don't use mini stands at all, I find them unstable. I use these

u/rlee0001 · 1 pointr/guitarlessons

Guitar, Amp, Instrument Cable, Headphones, Auto-Tuner, Metronome, Capo, Picks, Strings, Stand, Strap, Bag, String Winder, Polish & Cloth

Don't make them spend more than ~$200 on this. Consider pitching on for some of the accessories at least (though be aware that some of them are quite necessary right off the bat, such as a tuner).

You won't be able to appreciate the difference between a $100 guitar and a $5000 guitar by sound for at least a year and just to get started you need a bunch of supplies (see list above) and the cost adds up quick.

The guitar won't break unless you abuse it. Squier instruments are decent. In fact, you could even get something like a First Act at Walmart for under $100 and still not be able to appreciate the difference for quite a while.

At the store I work at, I'd be happy to post up some pictures today. Relatively simple though, A large U-bolt with some nature of padding on it for the body to rest on/in, and a peg for the neck to sit on is all they really are.

That said, they are EASY to knock off of these things if you aren't careful. I'm more fond of display hangers similar to:

Especially if they have a strap of some sort that holds the neck in place.

I would get something like this to put the guitar on the wall since your floor space is at a premium.

Bingo. I have two of them. Getting one more for my Evolve Bamboo GT with All Terrain wheels.

Here's my input along with links to products.

  1. Put the bed on risers to add storage space.
  2. Make a headboard for your bed. If you're handy, this can be done cheaply. If you're not handy, you can buy one for a reasonable price.
  3. Can the dresser and the desk be swapped? If so, put the desk next to the bed so that you don't wake up to a wall to your right and so you can look out the window while working at your desk. The desk can also serve as a bedside table.
  4. Mount the monitors on the wall to free up desk space. Here are a couple options - two singles and a double.
  5. Re-do the shelves. They have a very garage feel. Some cheap board from the hardware store to even out the sides would make a real difference.
  6. Put at least a picture above the bed on the side that's to your left while sleeping. It should be longer than it is tall. Scenery is good. I have this in my bedroom and I like the effect.
  7. Mount the guitar on the wall.

I’ve used these. They do “hang” but not super far.

It’s actually a cheap $12 guitar mount, purchased from Amazon.com. It was suggested to me from a video or blog I encountered, which listed it as one of the best accessories for Boosted Boards. It’s a guitar stand, but it works perfectly for Boosted Boards. Link to the product on Amazon is below...

I guess things I enjoy. Hobbies, experiences, things like that. That's why my music is one of the centerpieces of the room, instead of waiting until I had more space. I have trinkets from travelling around, some currency from foreign countries I could frame, that kind of thing. I was considering hanging my Les Paul guitar on the wall, with either somthing like this hanger or this horizontal one. I also have a little acoustic guitar like this.

Music, life experiences, could be the two main things.
