Is your Guitar too hard to play?
Expert Guitar Setups and Repairs, in New York City!
During the past 2 or 3 years I have been very fortunate to become an apprentice to Luthier Ric McCurdy in Manhattan. The tips and info I have learned go way beyond what you find in books. I have had the opportunity to play, examine and repair a
