Recommended Luthiers in Northern New Jersey

Can anyone recommend a good luthier/bass tech in or around Passaic County, NJ?

I'm inquiring on behalf of a buddy who lives in that area. He recently pulled a Vantage VP 820B out of a closet that hasn't been touched in decades. He's interested in keeping it but has no idea how good/bad its condition is. If we lived closer together, I know I could ID red flags for him. But since we don't, I'd like to ask the TalkBass hive mind for recommendations. Thanks!
