Amp tech in Boston?

Re: Amp tech in Boston?

I just got my Les Paul worked on by Mr. C's in Marlborough (by Chris). I got the Jimmy Page wiring put in as well as 2 new Duncan pups (Jazz neck, C5 bridge). The work is good and the prices are very fair, but...... he is a bit of a spaz! The parts took forever on mine (gold covers were out of stock). So when they finally came in I think he rushed it because he felt bad I waited so long and he FORGOT to ground the pups. I dropped it back off and he had it ready the next day. Overall, he did very good work and is highly regarded around the area.

Spaz is right. I ordered a ABR replacement bridge thru him for my Les Paul Classic and Chris talked me into ordering a different one (I think it was Gotoh) which he insisted would fit on my existing posts. Anyway, once I got the bridge the post holes were like 1.5 mm too big. So I drove there on my lunch break to order it, then to pick it up, then to return it. That was the last trip I have made there. In a back-handed way he did me a favor though, because after doing more research I bought the Tone Pros AVR-II and I couldn't be happier.

Anyway, go see Jim Mouradian. He is on the 3rd floor above Cambridge Music in Porter Sq. He is the man.

Do you guys know of any good places to have guitar work done in boston? The only place I know of is Mr Music in allston, and I am not impressed with their work.

I just need to get some pups installed.

I got my pups put in at Daddy's Junky Music on Mass Ave. across the street from Berkelee. If I remember correctly, they only charged about $30.
