Thanks guys! I contacted Mr. Shaheen and left a message, but I can't seem to find Master Manoukian's contact information...anyone have any ideas?
Also, if there are any luthiers in NJ, that would be better since driving to NYC can be a pain in the butt this time of year and it would take me an
hour and a half each way.

Haig Manoukian's contact number is: 212.777.4396
I take all my ouds to him when they need repair, he is great and very thoughtful and innovative.
Leave him a message and he'll get back to you, though sometimes it takes a while.
Take care,
