    Hello,

    Seen a few threads here about Guitar repairs etc in Cork, a lot of comments contradicting each other about being good and then being terrible.

    Looking to get a late 1950's classical guitar fully restored.

    From what I can tell, James O'Halloran and Taliesyn seem to be quite recommended, any others?

    Also south east region could be included also.

    I have had a lot of setups done by Jim O'Halloran. Also had a fishman installed on a McIlroy acoustic and I have had no issues. I'd recommend him based on my experiences.

    Richie St. John is another option.
