Where to get a setup in Orlando?

Hey guys, I'm looking for a reputable place to take my MIM Fender P-Bass to get professionally set-up. Anyone know of a good place and can you give me a ballpark price for what you paid and what you had done? Thanks!

I was visiting my brother in Orlando last year and visited a
great shop in your area.
They could help you: Bass Central- downtown Orlando.
Mike or Beaver...
I buy my F bass strings from them.
They have many basses- check out their postings here.

+1 on Bass Central, Grasshopper is the guy to talk to. I've been using him to work on my basses for years.

Yea, that guy is pretty cool and you can spend all day in that store(at least I did) learning to do your own setups has got obvious perks as well.

I'm learning as I go and I eventually want to get to the point where I can assemble my own bass, wiring and all, because I'm the kind of person who hates paying someone for something I can do myself. I messed around with it the other day and my friend helped me out with intonation and I got it pretty damn close to where I want it so I may hold off on getting a professional setup since that means more money I can put towards a new cab
