> Had an inquiry from an elderly gent in my area if I knew anyone who

> professionally and was able to do very good work servicing and repairing
> same. He did work for the well known Harmonicats, who sent their work to
> him. Unfortunately, this fellow has passed away, leaving a large gap in

> There are quite a number of older generation harmonica players in our
