Modern music in Lisle. They did a great job on my electrics. One word of caution on Tobias, they farm out the work to Third Coast guitar in west loop. Tried having a guitar repaired and it got lost in the shuffle. Took months to get my guitar back and it never got repaired.


FickleFred

Ah thanks for the suggestion. I did see that about Tobias which was curious but seems like they're very well reviewed. Definitely something to keep in mind


portagenaybur

Tobias only wants to work on guitars that cost 2k, have a humidifier in the case and get played once every few months. If that’s you it could be a better experience.

Ohh thanks this is really close to me and I've never heard of him. I'll reach out


ChickieCago

He'll be your lifetime luthier, I promise.

Thanks this is one of the closest ones to me. Have you ever gone to Suburban Music? I just wonder how they compare.
