Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a bit of advice on my 73' Jazz Bass. I've had it/gigged with it for a couple of years now, and after the most recent fret dressing, it's very evident that there's next to nothing left, the frets nearly meet the lacquer I'm in Virginia, and I was wondering if there was anyone/or any shop in the Mid-Atlantic/Southeast (ideally within the driving distance) that could refret and refinish the bass in nitro. I've heard or MJT in Missouri and a couple of shops in CA, but it seems like the East Coast is kind of lacking in shops capable of nitro/fretboard refins. Or am I wrong?
