From the reviews
Absolutely the best guitar and stringed instrument repair in the CNY area. I drive down from Syracuse to get my stuff worked on. I've had 5 different guitars worked on, including pickup installation, refretting, basic setup, new nuts and saddles, and wood bracing repair.
My wife had a dulcimer in need of repair and alterations. Mr. MacBlane was friendly, attentive and described fully what he planned on doing. His shop at the rear of his home was fascinating with the extensive tools and the various guitars, violins, mandolins and banjos hanging up through the space.
I recently left my 1976 Takamine 12 string with Bob thinking my guitar needed his "expertise" to improve the sound on my guitar. When I arrived from Burlington, Vermont at his repair shop I received a pleasant surprise. Bob said the frets were fine and so forth What I needed was a different style capo.
Bob is a master luthier and instrument repairman. People come from all over the country to get their instruments repaired at MacBlane's String Instruments. Five stars all the way.
