Looking for someone who does setup work in Connecticut. I have an acquaintance in Chesire Conn who would like to get a Martin dred setup checked. From his description over the phone it sounds like it could use a decent setup although I have not seen the guitar. PM me some contact info if you're interested or know someone in that area.

Thanks

I can recommend Trevor Healy in Easthampton, MA. Not the closest to Chesire but maybe your client gets up that way sometimes.

Consider Allen Watsky in northern New Jersey. http://www.alwatsky.com I've been following his work on Facebook and he has a lifetime of experience. Friends I have sent to him have been very happy with his work.

Hi Steve,
Interesting, I grew up in Cheshire (with an "H") CT, though I haven't lived there for 40 years. Is your friend a native ?

Your friend might try Paul Neri in the Guilford area.

I don't know if he is a native but he is an acquaintance that I do business with. Although, during our conversation today we spent more time talking about guitars ;)

Thank you all for the input, I will pass these along.
