Best Luthier for a cracked neck

Post by lonewolf »

My PRS Mira Korina Dragon suffered a severely cracked neck last night...the headstock and about a foot of the back of the neck are split away from the fingerboard and front of the neck...its still attached looks like it can be saved.

I was thinking of taking a trip to VA and a tour of the PRS factory with their new repair shop, but just in case, who is the best around here at fixing this?

I thought the PRS factory was located in Stevensville, MD. Did they move??
Pour me another one, cause I'll never find the silver lining in this cloud.

Jeff,

Peter Jogo does some impressive work. He will shoot you straight, give you a fair assessment and whether he can do it or not.

Thats too bad about your guitar...must have been a sick feeling. Hope you can get it fixed.
Steve is the name, drummin is my game.

Platzer is supposed to be pretty good. He's in Lemoyne which is right outside Harrisburg.
