warwickhunt Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 There's a guy in Tynemouth (Steve Martin) who does all sorts with DB, not strictly a 'luthier' but he's just built and fitted a neck to a DB body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodge_bass Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 You’d be better off using a specialist for work on your instrument. though I’m sure Steve Martin is good as I understand it he’s not an actual luthier / trained (but I could well be wrong). Ralph Plumb is based in Hexham and is a dedicated double bass / cello builder and repairer and is excellent. PM me for details . He’s done various bits of work for me and other pro players around the NE so that should give you confidence! Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenderjazz1 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Ralph is excellent and repaired broken headstock on my bass within 2 days. Highly recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
