Tommy's Guitars & Trading Posts is a one in a million shop known for great gear and great service. These folks are awesome and provide skill and expertise in guitar repair, handling everything from a badly warped neck and high action to cleaning electronics and restoring resonance. They are super helpful, down to earth dudes who do great work at an honest and reasonable price. Customers appreciate the personalized care and the straight-talking, direct service with undercurrents of authentic passion and caring. Visiting is more than a repair shop visit; it’s a cultural experience with an "old Chicago" feel.

Good folks, good prices, and supporting a local business make them highly recommended. Many have been going for over a decade and will continue for the foreseeable future.

If my guitar needs a set up I always take it to Tommy’s. They know how to set up an axe! Best guitar shop in Chicago.

These folks are awesome. I had big issues with my old Peavy bass with a badly warped neck. They fixed it up great and clean up the electronics as well. I highly recommend. Cheers!

Reasonably priced, quality set ups. Good deals can be found there on amps, pedals, and other gear too.
