What stands out is the customer service. You will not find better assistance than what the Tobias gentlemen will give you here! You are never pressured to buy anything. It's quite the opposite, they help you find out which guitar is a fit for you! I stopped here to help a friend choose a guitar, and I ended up going home with a Tobias exclusive Taylor American Dream! There is a nice selection of Martin's here as well, but the Taylor room feels like you are in Valhalla! If you like Taylor guitars, you will not be able to resist trying out a guitar in this room! If you are just shopping and are new to guitars, stop in. Mr Tobias will be more than happy to answer anything you throw at him! The assistant, Taylor, is very friendly and can help as well! I highly recommend stopping in on your guitar journey!

Summer camp 2026 was a bust for our child. The website claims the camp is for all levels, but they…read morewere unwilling or unable to work with a student entering their second year of study. The material was way too advanced and the teachers just didn't care. You'd think there would be a fun 'get to know you' activity, where children introduced themselves to each other? Nope, not even a chance for the kids to introduce themselves. The people running the program don't seem to care about the kids. When our child asked to get in touch with us [to be picked up early], they wouldn't let her use a phone! We were astonished by this gross negligence. We asked to discuss, but they just wanted to get more money by adding private lessons to the summer camp experience. Our child dropped because they were having a terrible experience, so we asked for a partial refund. Their solution was to quote their "no refund" policy and offer lesson credits at a place our child hated. Unbelievable. These people - Remus and Matt and their staff - may be good musicians, but they aren't good teachers and they certainly don't know how to run a camp with a positive vibe for kids. Looking for a good experience for your kids? Skip this summer camp!

We've tried other schools and they do not even compare to WMA. I wish we found this place sooner!

Years ago, I came across this RMS website by a recommendation of this musician I worked with…read more Then, I would see RMS name pop up on TheGearPage.net regarding great luthier work in Chicagoland. So, when my guitars were due for some maintenance, I decided to take them to RMS. I needed a setup on a Strat, and nut replacement on a Les Paul. Bob and I briefly discussed what I was trying to do via email, and set up an appointment date. What a pleasant and captivating individual he was. When I went there, we talked about what I liked and didn't like about my instruments. After that, he began to examine the guitars and gave me what he thought was good and not so good on the guitars. He wrote down my issues and made suggestions. He asked me if his suggestions would work for me every step of the way. As someone said previously, I felt like I was talking to a guru. He was pointing out issues I didn't realize I had. As for the nut replacement on the Les Paul... After he examined the instrument, he said he might be able to "fix" the issue without having to replace the nut. (Gibson cut the high E slot too close to the edge of the fretboard). A week later, I go see Bob again to pick up my guitars. He went over every little detail of work that he'd done on both instruments. He asked me to check for the things he'd mentioned, and wanted to make sure I was happy with his work. The nut that he "squeezed" on the Les Paul was perfect. I couldn't even tell it was worked on. My Strat doesn't choke up when I bend up high. Action on both guitars are excellent, and he must have sprinkled some magic RMS dust, because they even sound better, haha. There, we sat and talked about his band, my band, current music, the Beatles, Van Halen, gigs we've had, and stuff for a while. I feel like I'm a better person for having met him. I've been playing the guitar for about 19 years, and I never once had a "professional" setup. Now I know why there are professionals that offer this service, and why people pay for this wonderful craft. If you've never had a setup, you owe it to yourself to get it professionally set up. And, who better to do it than Bob? I high recommend RMS service. He'll change your life.
