re-post need help from players... Bass Luthier in East Valley of Phoenix

http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f57/ba...hoenix-929694/

I am posting this here to get more eyes on a thread that I started in "Luthier corner"

Reason I am posting this here is because I am looking for a person to help my setup my basses. I want a person who plays the bass and not just a technician. Thanks! Sorry for the re-post but at this point I am desperate for a talented guy, not a guitar center tech that I have to wait three weeks for a mediocre job!

+1 I can always tell the difference in my setups when they're done by bass player techs than others

No sweat! He just texted me a "thank you for the referral". Brian is also a Roberto-Venn trained builder. I've seen some of his customs, and they're killer too.

Good luck, bro!

He's so meticulous, it's funny. He did the epoxy on my fretless neck.

Check this out...
