ABOUT US

   Down Home Guitars was established to provide an atmosphere for those who appreciate fine acoustic instruments. We specialize in high-end handmade acoustic guitars, banjos and mandolins by Bourgeois, Collings, Deering, Gallagher, Huss & Dalton, Lowden, Martin, McPherson, Santa Cruz, Stelling & Weber, as well as Blueridge, Kentucky, Trinity College, & Johnson. We also have a fine selection of instructional books, DVD’s, CD’s and accessories, as well as acoustic pickups by Fishman and L.R. Baggs. While most music stores sell everything from drum sets to electric pianos, our customers will find our product selection and knowledge truly exceptional by keeping our focus narrow. The store is set in historic downtown Frankfort, Illinois, minutes from I 80 and Rt.45(Lagrange Rd) as well as I 57 and Rt.30(Lincoln Hwy.) and is open 7 days a week. Centered in the Trolley barn, the building is over 100 years old with hardwood floors and numerous specialty shops.  Stop by and visit the neighborhood and experience these truly exceptional instruments.

________________________________

We’ve Expanded! Stop in and check out our new store front. We now have a high end showroom and more room for acoustic instruments. Look for upright basses and fiddles coming soon.
