My practice room is too small

[sdbrit68]

Now that the wifes dresser and stuff is in my practice room..............I think I need a bigger house,how hard is it to build an extra 1500 square feet up ?

Turn all the knobs to 10, hit an Em bar chord, and BLOW those walls out a few feet!

I just bought a new house that had the best floor plan for my music room............ basically the family room, living room and the nook are just one big room. That's my music room. 9 foot ceilings. 1/3 of the house volume is my sound studio!!! I recommend buying a new house!!

guitars have a special dual level stand that holds 18 on the other wall

Suck it up buddy...this is where the rubber meets the road. Music is your passion....there should be nothing that stands in that way. She can store her whatever in another room. Just mention the tremendous cost to add on. Money is much better spent buying guitars an such. Perhaps she could reduce the number of shoes that she is storing??

There might be a nugget of wisdom here. Getting smaller (powered) speakers and a compact digital mixer like a Behringer X-Air would free up a bit of space. Perhaps use the storage issue as a bargaining chip to get spousal buy-in.

Is it full?

 

[sdbrit68]

Mostly, I traded some lower end ones to upgrade for some better quality

You could put those Monitors on Wall mounts and free up a lot of floor space. Put those stands away until needed.

Just closed on a new house. Get my own music room with room to display guitars and get more than 3 feet from the amp.
Nearest neighbor is ~ 50 yards.
Butcher it loud.

I'm in the process of building a 30'x20' out of these http://www.multiboxsc.com/

 

[sdbrit68]

The only reason I have the big speakers, they were used at guitar center for $45 a piece, couldn't say no to longer how to work a mixer

 

[PapaBear]

Hell it's not that full, there's still walking space! I can see way too much carpet
