Gibson Les Paul - Repair/Servicing

[sagarich]

My Gibson Les Paul Studio Gothic as been cased and stored under the bed in the guest room for the last 3 years (don't ask).

I've finally got it out and after replacing the rusty strings, I have discovered that the neck pickup no longer works and the bridge pickup volume control is very crackily.

I live in Surrey, not too far from Guildford. Can anyone recommend a good place to get this looked at?

I guess the obvious places are Guitar Village in Farnham and Andertons in Guildford....

Any suggestions/recommendations/experiences would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

GuitarGuitar in Epsom?

Or squirt some electrical contact cleaner in the pots? Servisol is the usual weapon of choice.

I highly recommend Feline Guitars in Croydon. Extremely high quality of work and reasonably priced. Be warned though, you may end up ordering a custom guitar! I've had most of my guitars set up, serviced and repaired there.

Chandlers in Kew.

My pal uses Guitar Village in Farnham to look after his 70s Tele and speaks very highly of them.

Thanks guys, I will try some servisol in the first instance. If no luck, I will take it to Guitar Village.

Another vote for Feline. They are easily a match for Chandlers for setups & repairs.
I love GV but they are no way near Feline (or Chandlers) based on the work they've done on my kit in the past.
