I am looking for someone in the Portland Oregon area who can help me fine tune my MSA Classic E9. I have recently taken every last screw out of this guitar, cleaned and re-lubed everything, replaced the felt underneath. I’ve got it nice and playable, but I know it can be the kind of better that only someone with more experience can get it to. How to get the compensated tuning dialed in the using two pedals/levers on one string. Travel distance as minimal as possible. Etc. I will pay and also work for a local coffee company so there may be some while beans left for you to enjoy. I ideally would like to be able to work with you and learn a thing or two. Given our current situation I understand if you prefer me to just drop my steel off.

Thank you!

Try Lynn Stafford. He's on the Forum. He does world class work on Emmons P/P's but I'm pretty sure his expertise extends to the all-pull realm.

I would be happy to come over and check out the general playability and get it tuned up, etc.
You could shoot me a PM.
