Modern Music Modern Music - Rockin' Chicago Since 1948 Proudly serving Chicagoland bands and musicians since 1948! Why a FACEBOOK page? Please don't ask!

Retail Musical Instrument Store located in the west suburbs of Chicago. New & Used Guitars, Amplifiers, Loudspeakers, Mixers, Drums, Brass and Woodwind Instruments. We also offer Musical Instrument Lessons, Repairs and Rentals

We're a shop full of professional players and engineers, not shareholders. Our staff dedicates a lot of our personal time outside the shop to playing and evaluating equipme

nt in the real world. Sometimes right down the street, often on tour, sometimes on other continents! That way we'll know the stuff we're selling is up to our high standards. Well, we'll be using this occasionally to hook up our friends with super specials on gear, as well as let people know when we find a product that just knocks our socks off. Due to agreements with manufacturers, we will not be quoting prices on stuff here. Just call us @ 630.810.1500
