it's a 119-4

It's got a crack down the bass side of the bridge, top to bottom of the body.

Any suggestions of somebody i could send it to and how much it would cost?

i'm in the UK , so ideally somewhere here.

Abe, if you're still in the North East try Kevin Parsons in Byker. Failing that Stefan Sobel's ex partner Nigel is working out of Newcastle and can probably do it, he's one of the best. There's also a guy in Tynemouth who I've heard is good, can't remember his name but a friend of mine has it. Dave Gregory in York is great but he's real busy making guitars so repairs go to the back of the queue. Cost? maybe £30-40 per hour, and it's a few hours work.

Cheers for the info Paul. Think i'm gonna have to wait till i get the cash together to fix the legend but i think i'll get some quotes so i know what i'm looking at.

You might be able to help me with one more thing.
I'm still around the north east and I'm looking for a guitar teacher again, i'm looking for some intense lessons.

I've been recommended Jimmy Savage by most people.

If you know of any courses?

Any suggestions?

Jimmy is a nice guy, is a great rock player and has an excellent reputation as a teacher. I gather he's pretty busy.
