Tesla Studio is located in Chicago, IL, owned and operated by musician/producer Erik Widman. Understanding the difficulties of creating original music, Erik opened a studio based on the principal of only charging artists for the use of his time, not the studio. The studio houses vintage and modern recording equipment from Neve, API, Universal Audio, Vintech, dBx, and Waves. Modeled after classic Swedish indie rock recording studios you'll find vintage instruments from Hagstrom, Fender, Gibson, Vox, Ampeg, Moog, and Ludwig. The studio has a wide assortment of microphones to allow you to create a unique sound. Please visit the Tesla Studio website for more information.
