    I was given an Acoustic Epiphone guitar today, only problem is the headstock is snapped off as the last owner threw a tantrum, anyone know a decent repair place in or around Dublin? Pictures to follow.

    Thanks, nim

    Archtop.ie is top notch. The repair could easily cost more than the value of the instrument, however, no matter who you go to. You could probably do it yourself but I'll leave it for other members to comment on the exact process.

    Thanks, but I'm here to try and work out the price of getting it fixed. It's a 1996 Epiphone PR 100/ns if it makes any difference/if it's worth anything. I'd hate to see it binned, and if the price is too much I might attempt a self repair.
