      Marguerite Pastella is an extremely talented repair person. She is an authorized warranty repair center for Martin, Taylor and Gibson. Here's an even stronger endorsement - I send many of my instruments to her for repair. Her work is impeccable and professional, and her prices and turnaround time are reasonable. I highly recommend her work!

  Bands

  • Neil Anderson - The Antipypr One of the most energetic and innovative pipers on the scene today. Celtic rock is close but even thats too limiting of a description for this band. Either solo or with the band Full Circle you are gonna have the roof torn off the place! You gotta hear this band live! Neil also plays mandolin and several other instruments. I can't wait to hear the Celtic solid body mandolin. High energy that never stops! Click the link to check out his touring schedule or to get the CD.
