I have a couple of basses that I would like to have a full setup on. Necks adjusted, ect, ect. Does any one know of anybody in the Grand Rapids, MI area that does this other than going to Guitar Center. I would like to find someone who is good with Basses. Any recomendations?

Check w/Elderly Music in East Lansing, I don't think that's too far from you. One of the biggest internet sellers for stringed instruments and from what I've heard an excellent bricks and mortar store there. They do lots of set ups and such for new and vintage instruments. Good people, good service, have ordered a fair amount of stuff there.

You know I did not think about going there. Your right, not to far could drive down on say a Saturday or something.
