Hi Folks,
I'm looking for an excellent repair person in Ireland to do some work on an instrument I made some years back for a customer who lives there. Any recommendations? Thanks!
Todd

A few photos of the instrument (a 5-course guitar-bouzouki) for the eye candy lovers...

Hey Todd - hope all is well with you.

Try OLFer Murray McCloud (not sure I spelled Murray's name correctly if not my apologies Murray).

Hi Todd --

I was in Ireland a couple of months ago on family holiday, and wanted to contact Dublin luthier, Frank Tate, for a possible shop visit, but just ran out of time. I don't know him or his work, but he does build bouzoukis among other things, and does repair work. I was impressed that he's apparently built guitars for both Rodrigo and Gabriela, of Rodrigo y Gabriela. Here's his website: http://www.franktateinstruments.com/

Thanks, Hesh and Ken. Hesh, do you know Murray's OLF username? Can't find him.

If anyone else has more recommendations, please chime in. Thanks!

Todd I think Murray is Murmac or Murrmac, I'll shoot him an email and let him know to check out your thread.

Edit: It's Murmac and I just emailed him for you Todd.
