Luthier Directory

Hello,

Does anyone know if there is a Luthier directory out there somewhere. I was trying to put some new strings and a realist pickup on my bass and my soundpost fell. Got what an awful sound that is.

Anyway, I am going to have to get it reset. I live in Cuyahoga Falls, OH and was hoping to find someone local so I could get it done fairly quickly.

Thanks

Pat

Check Bob Gollihur's site.

a foot or so of string tied to one end of the soundpost is a time saver in a pinch.

You're pretty much surrounded by luthiers.

Martin Violins in N. Canton
(330) 499-3116

Horst Uebel in Parma:
440-842-5576

Rodger Stearns in Hartville:
330-877-8584

And there's more on down the state, and other violin luthiers but I don't know which ones speak bass outside these three.
