The one you seek goes by the name of "Bloke". Find him and your quest will soon be over.

He can chime in for himself, but didn't "Bloke" say something about not taking on restoration work other than for himself or for instruments he has sold? He does fine work, from what I've seen, but may not be available to do this.

Matt Walters -NJ (at Dillon Music), Dan Oberloh-WA, Lee Stofer-GA, and Robb Stewart-CA are all fine craftsmen who could do this for you. Just expect it to take some time, because their services are in demand and therefore they have a backlog of work.
