Know any good setup spots in New York City??

[UnboundBassist]

I'm in need of a setup for my Warwick Corvette. Preferebly a place that works on the finish as well as there's a little bit of "staining" on the wood finish between my strings and where my thumb goes.

Here are the problems I'm having....

1. Modulation sound when sustaining a note
2. buzzing on D and G strings between the third and 8th fret
3. change in color in the finish
4. fets very dry looking
5. bass strap hook thing - lost the rubber thing between that and the end of my bass

If anyone has suggestions on doing it at home thats cool too, but I think that it's due for a full setup by a pro.

Any chance you know of someone who is more uptown? I'm coming from Queens so even if someone knows anyone there that'd be a big help.
