We have similar tastes. I have a Monarch Deluxe and just ordered an Alembic not long ago.
Is that a MG Bass I see? Have one of those on order as well.

How do you fit 17 instruments in a corner?

Indeed! That Emperor Deluxe is one of the last ones with a chestnut top - and it plays better than it looks!
First picture - Yamaha BB714BS, ESP LTD B-208FM 8 string, Sadowsky NYC Will Lee 4, Beardly Customs Patchwork 4 string fretless, Fender Custom Shop Jazz, Sadowsky NYC 5, Yamaha Motion Bass, Alembic SC Deluxe, Fender Masterbuilt 66 Jazz fretless, Fodera Emperor Deluxe chestnut, 64 Fender Jazz, 73 Fender P (with "A" style neck), Yamaha Motion Bass, Haedean Uke fretless, and fender Kingman. Oh, and those two guitars.
Second pic - The Yamaha BB makes another appearance (only because I am getting it ready to send it to the painter), BSX EUB, Sadowsky NYC will Lee 4, 77 Ric 4001, MG Extreman fretless 5, MMUSA Sterling 5, Beardly Customs Rainbow, and Heartfield 6 deluxe.
I have another corners as well, and a bunch on wall hangers around the house.
What is the red/bergundy bass behind the Alembic? I don't recognize the headstock.
It's a Fender Custom Shop Masterbuilt 66 Fretless Jazz (Jason Smith). I had the board coated with epoxy. It's killer.
Sure! Just send me the deposit ...Is there a loan program available for Me?
I think that's the one between the Alembic and the Fodera. I was talking about the one with the weird headstock that's all the way on the end (far left).
That's a cool solution to save space. Do you have any issues or concerns with the instruments swaying on the hangers and bumping into one another?
Being in California, my first thought due to earthquakes. The San Andreas fault is a few miles from me and we get temblors above 2 on the Richter at my home every several weeks.
Oh - that's a Yamaha Motion bass - it's more "hot pink" in person. I have it strung piccolo.
There is something "morning wood-ish" about those pegs covered by the blue and brown fabric. In some circles they may censor this pic
. Yeah probably just me. But wait -- that sticker on the teal jazz bass means I am unto something.

CRAP! I was going to say Sawzall.
Carry on...

Man, you guys are NOT invited to the next jam session ...
I just showed this thread to my wife. She's now not as concerned about the 18 basses she knows about in the house
