I'm hoping someone can recommend a guitar technician in the Connecticut area. Ideally, this would be someone in the Valley, between New Haven & Springfield / Northampton / Amherst, MA; even more ideally, someone in the Hartford area. I have a nice Epiphone electric & Takamine acoustic to care for, & would like the candidate to be certified or at least experienced with both makers.
Thanks in advance!
Do the manufacturers' websites not have a list of approved tech/ repair centres you could use as a starting point?

Ask cnev, as he's in your neighborhood.
I've always trusted the guys at East Coast Music Mall in Danbury, but that may be a bit of a drive for you.
And dhodge is in western Mass, and he knows everyone there.
Hi folks, thanks for the welcomes & replies. It was a good idea to check the manufacturers' sites. Gibson's Repair & Restoration Department responded with a link to a list of nationwide authorized warranty service centers arranged by state. Only two in all of Connecticut! Here's the address, for anyone making a similar search:

Thanks again, everyone.
Check out a guy callled Tom Baxter he just moved to Newington you should be able to get his number on the web. He does guitar repair/setups etc. My instructor uses him as does the bass player.
He's got a good rep.
If this is not a warranty covered repair I'd still check out Tom.
