Having given up on trying to remedy the problems with my Jackson Maverick HD, I'd like to find someone who is familiar with these pull-release instruments, to help me out. Is there anyone in Florida, within 3-4 hours driving distance (from Vero Beach) who works on PSGs? I really want to avoid having to ship it back to Jackson. |

Bondz Music is in Wildwood, FL, which can't be too far from Vero. There is at least one person there with a good knowledge of steel guitars in general.
I tried to set something up with them once but it didn't work out. They could have fixed my problem but they wouldn't allow me to make an appointment so I could stand there while they did the work. They wanted me to leave the guitar with them. It's a longish drive from Naples so I didn't follow up on it.
Call them and ask; if you don't mind dropping it off and collecting it later they may well suit your purpose. I know of no one else in Florida. _________________ Roger Rettig: Emmons D10, B-bender Teles and Martins - and, at last, a Gibson Super 400!

Thanks, Roger. They're about 2 hours from me. I called them and they said I'd have to leave it and turnaround would be 1-2 weeks. Still better than shipping it back to Jackson. |

Yes, agreed. At least you won't be risking your instrument with a shipper.
I hope they can take care of your problem. _________________ Roger Rettig: Emmons D10, B-bender Teles and Martins - and, at last, a Gibson Super 400!

Both the owner, Jonny Bondz, and store manager JR Reich play Sho-Bud's. JR does most of the repair work.
JR and I worked in a band for 5 years, until COVID closed down the venue last year. |
