Howdy,
Took a chance and brought a valuable guitar of mine to a local shop that I'm not familiar with because of their reputation and selection of high quality gear. I call every 10 days or so to check on its status and get the runaround, "Yea, I'm goin' to my luthier tonite. No problem man. Have it back by the weekend. Thanks, Dude."
Am I right to be worried?
