Here's what I've always been told... or asked more so.
 
Would you rather sit in a chair in the living room or be hung on the wall by your neck? LOL!!!!
 
All in all I too have little hands around the house so keeping them up high is necessary.
 
Peace,
Dino

I use the stands like adriaan does on gig's or at church. I have a WW Doplhin Pro that odesn't fit it though. I do like that coffin case Bill. Does it have wheels on it?

My Brother Paul,
I've been traveling like crazzzzy.  Everything is just fantastic.  I'm getting to spend some time with the family in the next week or so too.
How have you been?  Let's email so as to not tie up threads here.
 
Peace,
Dino (brother Paul the Fake One)

Hey Adriaan, Why not hang the kid on the wall and let the basses run free? LOL

Keith - the kid's mom might object more to that than she does the wall hangers. But what are we talking about? I've got the 5 year old playing chess already, so he might be just smart enough to pick up bass.

I've started to use wall hangers for my basses, except for the Status, (have to keep reminding myself not to try and hang it up), it gets them up off the floor and out of reach.
I have my 5 year old nephew stay over quite often and he's taken a bit of a fancy to them, sticky fingers and strings don't go together well.
He complains that I'm not sharing, when he's older he'll understand.

In the house? Too many cats and dogs for a bass to survive in the wild. Cases are required (and must not be laying down, lest they becomed fur-covered). On stage? I use a tripod  that leans back and hangs the bass by the neck (although not until dead!). Very stable, and I have never worried about anyone bothering my gear. I project the stock bassist attitude, I guess. They are all fairly certain they're not crazier than me!

Kevin,
 
give him an Ibanez to play with. And enjoy all the sticky fingerprints on that bass, that are not on your alembic(s). :-)
 
Gruesse, Pablo

Olie:
 
Wheels?  This 50 (soon to be 51) year old back says YEAH!!!!  It's really quite convenient.  I usually bring two or three guitars to each gig anyway.  This makes it easier than dealing with 3 cases.  The wheels are truly a blessing and there are enough different handles on the case to make picking it up easy any way you want to.  If only I could fit my Rickenbacker 360/12 into it.  Instead I've been inspired to mod my Strat 12 (which does fit) with Alembic guts, so maybe the fact that the Ricky doesn't fit has a silver lining.
 
Bill, tgo

I really like that case. Where did you get it?
I am considering coming out of retirement (nothing too serious more for my enjoyment) and that case would really work out great for me. Do you know if they make one large enough for bass guitars?

I haven't seen one for bass, but you can check with coffin case.  I'm not home right now, so I can't measure it, but I know my strat XII fits in it, and the 12 string is enough longer than a standard strat that it won't fit in a standard Fender type case.  I can measure it this weekend and post, if you'd like.  I got it from samash.com and it cost about $189, IIRC.
 
Bill, tgo

Thanks Bill,  
No need to measure the case though, I went to Coffin cases' web site http://www.coffincase.com/products/
and sent them an email to get measurments.
Thanks, again.
