Luthier in Washington DC area (for rehair)

Hello,

Any rec's for a professional rehair in the washington DC area?
(I'm hoping not to find players or part-time dealers who do rehairs "on the side")

I did a search on the board and came up dry. How is John Lemoine?

Thanks for reading.



THE BUSINESS,

Sevitzky.

John Lemoine is my luthier and I love his work. I don't know, though, if he does rehairing.

Depending on where you are in the D.C. area, you might try Joshua Henry in Gaithersburg MD (301-801-0914). He makes beautiful -- and expensive -- bows and also does rehairing.
