    Default Luthier in greater Chicagoland

    I have an acquaintance from another (non musical) forum that seems to be in need of a neck reset on his 1974 Martin D-12-28. Any recommendations?
    Thanks in advance,
    Tim

    70+ views and no help? The guy is in Rockford, not a fan of driving through the city to get to Old Town but, if someone can help, it might be kind.

    PM on the way! Thanks Dale!
    I knew someone had moved to the area and could not think who!

    Check out Stephen Perry. He’s in the Chi Town area now.

    Jim at Hogeye in Evanston is an authorized Martin warranty service provider. But Dale in DeKalb would be a lot closer and equally as good I think.

    Thanks, I told him about Hogeye, I’m trying to sort out connecting him with Dale even as I write this.
    It doesn’t sound like he wants to go too far but, I can only offer him a few options if that’s the case.
    He has someone that “knows someone” too but, I tend to be leery of those kinds of repair folk.

    He says Dale might be a good fit, I think my work on this project might be done.
    Thanks folks!
