Default Luthier or Setup Person in Greenville NC area?

I was wondering if anyone out there knew of any good setup people in Greenville, NC. I would not mind going to Raleigh for this either, it is about a 1.5 hour drive each way but is worth it if I can find a good person to setup my guitar.

I am looking to get my 1993 Gibson Gospel setup.

Thank you,

Rich

In Raleigh there is Harry's guitar shop that I have had good luck with. Their inhouse guy Terry is not bad with set-up and the more repair type stuff they send to Ben Runkle (sp?). Good work but can take a while.

Just a bit farther in Cary is Fat Sound. I got their inhouse guy to set up one of my Taylors and was pleased.

I know it is drive from Greenville so I would try to call and set up a time so that they could see about doing the setup while you wait (don't know if they would do this or not but never hurts to ask)

If you go to Harry's tell them that Tom (BTO all Mahogany Taylor) sent you

I used to live in Greenville but never had any work done there. I have had guitar work done at both Fat Sound in Cary and Zion Guitars in Raleigh. Highly recommend both.
