About Me

If you wanna eat pizza, go to Chuck E. Cheese. If you wanna play guitar, come here.

We're a locally owned and operated guitar shop specializing in carefully selected guitars for most price ranges, and we stand behind all the guitars we sell. We also do guitar repair, customization, and build-to-suit, as well as awesome lessons for every level and all the cool accessories you could ever want.

We're at 2271 Randall Road in Carpentersville, IL. 847-844-8844. www.fatcatguitars.com.

These guys are awesome:

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

guitar players, people who want to play guitar, people who know what a guitar is, bands, local businesses, and people who will change my litterbox. Not necessarily in that order.
