Looking for good guitar setup person in Los Angeles area.

Over the years I have collected a dozen or so guitars... some of them need minor repairs... some sound great but play horribly and need to be set up.

I used to have a friend of a friend that would do all my guitar work but he no longer does that type of work.

I also found a great guy right here in San Pedro however they tore down the building he was in and I have not been able to find him (Blue Mule Studio)

Anyone in So Cal have a good guitar guy they can recommend?

You might enjoy at least a visit to McCabe's.

McCabe's is great but they get W-A-A-Y backed up on repairs. I use a guy in Toluca Lake who also does a lot of violins, cellos and other instruments. He's really good, a great guy who used to have a shop down on Sunset Blvd.
