Default Neck Reset and Setup in Seattle area

I have a couple of guitars that I need to have setups done, and one that needs a neck reset…looking for a good person in the Seattle-Bellingham area. Anyone know of good people for this in the Pacific NW??
Thanks

I have had some good setup work done at Mike Lulls guitar works in Bellevue. They are definitely not cheap though.

Tom at Mike Lull's is who I use, as I live in the next town north of there. They aren't cheap and they are booked out 3+ weeks right now.

Dusty Strings has had good people through there. I don't know who is there currently.

A friend mentioned they found a great person down in Tacoma. I'll see if I can round up the info and post back.

I met a luthier/repair person from Bellingham at La Conner Guitar Festival, he was really sharp. Will Bright https://www.brightguitars.com/repair

Dennis Berck is known to be exceptional. Quite a few UMGF guys use him for major vintage work.
