I haven’t been there in many years but the downtown store was an awesome experience.
Man, I miss Lucky Wishbone! And Eegees, and Greasy Tony’s, and Los Fuentes and and...

Oh my. You bring back memories Scotty. The Chicago Store was amazing in the 60's and 70's. Brothers Phil and Joe had some amazing guitars come through the shop. Not the easiest place to get a score, they were sharper than broken glass. There was the main floor and then the hidden stash, upstairs. It was almost like going into an instrument museum. Incredible times in the Tucson music seen.
I ditto Lucky Wishbone, Los Fuentes and throw in Pancho`s and Casa Molina.
