One wall almost done, just needs trim pieces cut for the top gap. This is Trusscore and their integrated slatwall (for hangers) on top. Looking pretty good because of my contractor's hard and conscientious work, but I have to say, if I had to do it again, I would not use Trusscore. Much harder and longer to install than promised, not impressed with the quality of delivery (several pieces damaged).

But nice looking progress nonetheless! It will look better covered with guitars and basses!
 
Looks like it will be rattlely and reflective. What’s your plan for sound treatment?
Yeah, not going to be doing recording in there, and jams would have to be low vol. More for storage / display than playing. I didn't see any way to get the hanging capacity I need with good recording acoustics, so I didn't even try.

Really need a bigger place, but not in the cards at this point.
