Chicago Guitar Company

Hand made pickups & affordable guitars

I work alone and make everything by hand.  I use parts that big manufacturers would call too expensive, and techniques that their designers overlook.  While some of my improvements are obvious, some are also proprietary, developed by me over time. 

Please look at the custom work section of my website to see some of the instruments I’ve restored and built for myself and others.

    I am trying to find any info on the cleo guitar manuf. co. chicago. I have a nice little acoustic guitar made out of oak back, spruce top, it plays nice and I would guess it is at least 70 years old.

      : is Your company the same chicago guitar company that manufactures the FG-8030? If so I was wondering if you could possibly give me a quote on that model in almost mint condition.
