Cello repair in the neighborhood

Here is the instrument repair information I have promised all of you. The closest full time Luthier (string instrument repair person) lives and works in Monroe, Michigan. His name is Ed McCoppin, he is the president of the Michigan Violinmakers Association, and he has done work for several families in the studio. You can reach him by phone at (734) 755-9680 or email at emviolins@gmail.com.

Another repair person in the area is Joeseph Morin, who lives and works in Maumee, OH. He is a retired Maumee School District employee who may have time to do your repair for you. He can be reached at (419) 893-1706.

If you are renting your instrument, the rental shop is responsible for repairs. Make sure they give you a replacement instrument for the time that yours is in the shop.
