    My soon-to-be father in law makes guitars, mandolins, and ducimers. This is a retirement hobby for him but if you'd like I could put you in contact.

    Hank,
    your best resource would probably be J & A Beare In Dallas Tx, my wife used to work for them. They buy sell and maintain classic stringed insterments in the top classes (Stradaveri) to supplying student insterments for a 4th grader thier luthiers are fantastic and very approchable so give them a try it might surprise you

    Check out the Luthiers section on the Unofficial Martin Guitar Forum (UMGF) for leads.
