Yes, those two crazy musicians, Elda Dellinger and John Lucy, don't know the meaning of the word 'quit'.
"With so many mom and pop music stores going out of business in this area, to what do you attribute your success?"
"Exclusive dealership of Crafter Guitars, our variety of products, from percussion to mandolins, John's expertise repairing and refinishing pre-owned pianos, reasonable prices, and our bending over backwards service. It doesn't hurt that John Lucy is a very talented comedian and musician, so when you come in, you usually get entertained," Elda Dellinger, CEO said. "We're excited to announce our new location. We've secured an eclectic little shop on the southeast corner of Garfield and West 4th street."
"What kind of experience do each of you bring to this business?"
"I grew up a retail brat, my mother owned a small retail store, and set me up in my own store at the age of 19. I've owned 5 businesses. I also have a guitar degree. John has been a music store manager for 5 years, is a piano tech and woodworker and a teacher. And of course he has the brawn and moving experience. We make a good team."
"You mentioned that John also plays harmonica and sings?"
"Well not at the same time but yes."
"And you play 5 instruments?"
"I play guitar, piano, bass, flute and play at drums."
"You both were profession musicians at one time, correct?"
"Yes, John and I have been both pro and semi-professional musicians. We still perform occasionally."
"Why did you move?" this reporter inquired.
"I've always thought that a store with refurbished antique pianos really belongs in historic old downtown."
"Why there?"
"The area is perfect for us. There are art and antique shops, a lot of great restaurants, as well as a dance academy right next door. It's the perfect store, nestled amidst mom and pop shops.
