My buddy who recently moved to England was nice enough to give me his old Taylor GC3 acoustic for a very good price. It's been sitting around for awhile without any strings so I bought a new TUSQ saddle/nut (yes, the correct dimensions) off of eBay.

Wondering if anyone knows of a good luthier or shop in town that would be able to set this baby up. I don't trust myself with the measurments or the glue.

Thanks. - Sun, 4 Oct 2009 1:47am
