Joshs Guitar Shop

I was looking for a local luthier and found Josh's guitar shop family owned. perfect! Just what I was looking for thank you guys!

My husband loves this place great place for repairs when needed or upgrades very knowledgeable they even have lessons

Josh did excellent work on my Barker archtop. Central Illinois musicians are lucky to have such a skilled luthier nearby! 🎸 🎵🎶🎵

Josh is without a doubt the best luthier in a 200 mile radius. His skill and passion for the instrument is unparalleled in the area. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

One of the best guitar repair, amp repair, luthier shops in the country. Highly recommend!

Joe's Drum & Damien's Guitar lessons: Outstanding knowledge, adaptable to different learning styles and have been great with my son (he was maybe 7 or 8 when he started there) Also both Josh & Damien do amazing work repair/rebuild etc work, you'll not be disappointed.

Ace work doing maintenance, set up and fret repair on my semi-hollow electric - and in under a week to boot! Very pleased, plays like a dream, I’ll definitely be back.

I just got one guitar back and have dropped off a second. The first one came back sounding great. I had it fully rewired, and it came back exactly as requested, in a reasonable amount of time, and sounding like a million bucks. The price was fair, and the wiring is OCD-level tidy. Nice work Josh!

Josh hooked me up with a sweet ESP that had perfect setup - the intonation just absolutely sings! He is a great and entertaining player, a solid guitar tech, and truly just a good and decent person, and I say all those things from personal experience. Go see Josh and get your axe sharpened.

So much friendlier than the other music store in town. They did an amazing job of setting up my guitar. They also fixed an amp head for me, very quickly and reasonably priced.

Top notch advice about any guitar and accessories. Friendly and professional service with one of the best guitar instructors in the area. Our child has excelled in playing the guitar in just a few months.
We have had three guitars serviced for various needs and the work is outstanding.

I just got my guitar back from Josh's and the way it sounds and plays is like night and day. He is truly an artist. Masters of their craft at Josh's! Will recommend

Josh n crew do amazing work. This is THE place to get great work done on any ax!!

The best guitar shop in central illinois by far. Highly suggest going here for any guitar repair or need. Very friendly laid back staff. The way they take care of and make your guitar look and sound you would think it was for them. No guitar shop in this area comes even near the quality and customer service you get from joshs guitar shop.

Josh is quite the guitar tech, when it comes to repairs of accoustic & electric guitars, bass guitars, etc. he is spot on.
His background, knowledge, and endured time with in music buisness and sound make him a definitive gold standard.

Josh fixed my guitar quickly for a reasonable price. He was great to work with. Will definitely be back!

Josh and Damien are top tier. Great dudes, and amazing at what they do.

Reasonably priced guitar lessons and my son is truly engaged. Damien is a wonder

Love going to Josh's guitar shop. Makes you feel like family with the best service. Great music instrument repair shop!

He rewired my Strat to the Tex Mex configuration. Players ship guitars to him from all over the U.S. He's that good.
