I searched for this, but the last thing I saw was from 2004. Does anyone have newer info? I know there is a Phil in Naples. I was wondering if they use anyone local. I've only lived here a short time. Thanks!

Here are the only 2 that I am aware of.

Alberti's Violins
Wellington, FL
(561) 798-0425

Ronald Annis & Kathleen Nikolai
Sarasota, FL
(941) 322-2858

I have used Alberti's for some minor setup work in the past with good results. I have never used Ron and Kathleen, but the come well recommended by reliable sources. There may be others around that I am not aware of.
