Tim has done some very good repairs on chanters that have been built with faults. If you have a chanter, such as the one described, he is an option.

As I said, my first choice would be Mark Hillman if you are on the East coast. Seth is certainly a very skilled craftsman and is another excellent choice, but I believe that he sticks pretty much with his own stuff.

One of the reasons I suggest someone like Hillman is that he has experience with old sets. Seth brought his considerable instrument building background to the UP's, but his experience is primarily with his stuff. It reminds me a bit of Ray Sloan across the pond. Nice stuff, and well built. But these older chanters require a little different kind of skillset.

Different strokes ..........
