Guitar Refret
Anyone know a decent reasonably priced luthier/tech in the Wellington region that can do a refret on a 60's Harmony? I have done a few but not really comfortable doing this on my H74.
Otherwise might be incoming GrantB.

Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

He's not only a talented luthier, he's also the nicest guy!

I can't recommend Grant highly enough. I'm in Christchurch and could have got my LP done here, but I chose to send it up to him instead and am so glad that I did

Re: Guitar Refret
Maple, rosewood or ebony board? Vintage or modern guitar? Bound fretboard? Set or bolt on neck? Narrow, medium or jumbo fretwire? First, second or thousandth refret?
Tin arse!!

I would expect no change out of $4-500 I imagine.

Re: Guitar Refret
Lawrence did one for me some time ago - bloody excellent work.
