A customer of mine need a set up on one of his archtops. Can anyone recommend a good repair person in the Needham/Boston area?

Thanks,

Nigel

You could check out the New England Luthier's web site: newenglandluthiers.org. There's a listing of members with what they do and a map to help you find them. Or you could take it to Burton or Yukon (both on the list), either of whom are more than qualified from what I've seen.

+2 for Yukon, or Burton. Yukon does a LOT of archtop instruments...
