Looking for a shop to work on an amp?

[Mononoaware]

I recently acquired a '70's Fender Vibro Champ that I fell in love with from the get-go, and have been thinking about getting a couple mods and a recap done. Might want to get it put into a head, too.

I considered trying it myself, but since I've only soldered guitar and effect circuits so far and am afraid of DYING, I want to find a true professional shop who will do a bang up job for me.

Do you guys have recommendations for finding a good amp tech? Are there any online shops I should be looking at? I don't mind mailing the chassis, if it means that it gets done up right.

Thanks for any advice you might have!

Here is an offical vote for Bruce!!! I own 4 amps...2 of them have been worked on by Bruce and one of them was custom built by Bruce. I can't speak highly enough of his work! There are a load of amp techs here in Atlanta not a one of them could touch Bruce and on top of his ability he has an amazing sense of killer tone and is a hell of a nice guy to boot!
