NJ - Recommend a luthier (local or otherwise)?

[Horny Toad]

I've got a Precision I'd like to convert to a P/J, but I don't know of anyone local who can do the routing for the J pickup. I checked at my local music store, but no luck. Can someone recommend a good luthier? I don't care if I have to ship the body.

Where in NJ are you? If around Philly, I can suggest someone.

I'm in Flemington, about an hour away from Philly.

That's not too far away from here. My old boss lives in Flemington.

A co-worker referred me to Pete Brown at South Jersey Guitar Repair in Collingswood, NJ, and I've found a few other people who use him as well, including my instructor (Pete used to play in his blues band, too). As a matter of fact, I have a bass in Pete's shop right now.

I don't know how current he keeps his web site, but here it is: Link Removed. His contact info is in there.

Cool, thank you.
