hm, confused liao! I place my epi les paul in my ritter padded bag and lean it against the wall... not ok ah :?
Hmm for purposes and intents of this question, i think it's ok. there isn't much reaction force from the wall to the epi.
But just to let you give an idea of what i feel about leaning electrics on the wall:
my friend last time placed his guitar on a sofa with the neck leaning on the wall. for quite some time. (maybe 2-3weeks? a month?) At a particularly wide angle. (So you can imagine the very end of the headstock on the wall end, the end of the body on the sofa end.)
so just ask yourself: would your guitar neck be strained by the reaction force from the wall over a period of time?
for me, I would rather just leave the guitar lying down if possible.
just my 2 cents.
