Personally: Self employed, (Certified Luthier, Guitar Manufacturing & Repair), stable, laid back. I'm not a wack job. I'm disease free. I do use common sense. I'm mechanically inclined. I have friends. People like me, I like people (sometimes). I don't play with guns (yet). I can bowl pretty good.(Brian you suck) I suck at golf, but I love it! My fastest mile was 5 min. 35 sec. I have twin nieces that are the greatest. I don't pick my nose when others are around. I shower regularly. I'm getting better at typing. I think Carol Streams fireworks suck. I think junk food is hard NOT to eat. I own a Juiceman juicer (got the Breadman bread maker free with purchase, score!) I think Delmonico's Steakhouse, in Vegas, is the greatest meal on the face of the planet!!!

Business: Certified Luthier, President Tully's Shop, Bensenville, IL. Graduate of Roberto-Venn School of Luthiery, Phoenix Arizona, Class of '96. Head Production Repair for Washburn Guitars, '96-'98. Started Xrossbone Guitar Company '97 to current. Building custom guitars is my passion! In House Repair for Sam Ash Music, Burbank, Lombard & Buffalo Grove, '98-'03.

Tully's Shop is residentally located in Bensenville Illinois. At ***www.tullysshop.com / 630-677-6306*** you'll find pricing for your more common repairs, info on my credentials and the guitars I build. All the info you'll need to find the shop is in the contact section. I'm centrally located and east to find. If you're looking for parts, I stock a lot of commonly needed parts that I was never able to find quickly before I started my business. I am also taking in out of town and out of state work via FedEx or UPS, contact me for more details.

Success in this business isn't based on how big your building is or how cool you can make your store front look. It's the quality of your work! I'm very proud to be approaching my 13th year in this business and to continue to provide my customers with the best results and customer service in the Chicagoland area.

If you're tired of (the guy at the guitar store) changing your strings and calling it a set up, then you're in the right place. Let's find out what the true potential of your guitar really is. You'll find that the service I provide and my expertise differentiate Tully's Shop from many others. Countless numbers of my clients have had horror stories to tell. I do my best to make sure the nightmare ends here.

I see clients one at a time, by appointment only. This ensures uninterrupted attention to your needs without the typical distractions of the loud music stores. This isn't a company with many employees, just one. Me. It's the only way I can ensure the work gets done right the first time. Your guitar is handled by me and no one else. There are none of the typical worries of dropping your guitar off at some store and the countless things that can and have happened.

**Turn Around Time** Always a big issue! I do my very best to turn around repairs as quickly as possible without compromising quality of work. If you need it done now, call me now. I don't take walk-ins but if you call first I can usually slide you in. You just need to make sure I'm available and I need to know you're coming. Same day, next day, no hurry, I can help. The longer you wait to call...

If you need pickups replaced...I can do that. If you need tuners replaced...I can do that. If you need frets replaced...I can do that. If you need wiring done...I can do that. If your guitar won't stay in tune...I can fix that. If you need someone to build you your dream guitar...I can do that too! I work on all makes and models of guitars and basses. Banjo's & Mandolins too.

Who I'd like to meet:

A woman that is as smart as she is beautiful!!

    I like your website. I always wondered who bought those green see-through BC Rich guitars that hung on the wall at Guitar Center for years...now I know. No really, nice website and I wish you much success. Our #2 guitar player just got a Dean V that needs to be set up bad...I'll recommend you to him. Rock On.

    To you all at Tully's,

    I am looking to get a set-up and some other work done on an electric bass that I have. I would take it to you but I am located in Albany Park, far northwest side of Chicago, and I have no car. Do you have somewhere to recomend? Thanks for reading and any input you might have...

    Sincerely,

    Kurt Helmbacher
