Recommend me great techs for re-frets?

I’m based in Hertfordshire so somebody local would be great but not essential.

I'd recommend Jonathan @FelineGuitars. East Croydon....you have a train from Bedford straight to East Croydon...

Fretwork and refrets are possibly our speciality.......

Stuart at https://www.tonehenge.co.uk/ is not a million miles from you and is brilliant. He's a touring guitar tech for some top bands and runs a workshop doing setups and maintenance when he's not on the road (which is all bloody year, at the moment). Lovely guy, knows his onions. Tell him Mike Prosser sent you, he'll look after you!

Another vote for Feline - their work is amazing - I live in Glasgow but they now do all my refrets

Without question Jonathan and the team at Feline are nothing short of fret whisperers. I’ve had 3 full refrets and at least as many dress/setups done there. If I had the funds I would stick all my guitars through there for a refret with Dunlop 6000’s whether or not they needed it because the end result is amazing

+1 for Feline. Not had a re-fret done by them, but the fret work on my Lion is exemplary.

+1 for Jon and the Feline team, I’ve had two vintage guitars refretted by them and they are spot on. 

Also @Danielsguitars just scratch built me a custom Brazilian rosewood tele neck and the fret work is spot on

Jonathan is amazing at @FelineGuitars but also my personal pick is @IvisonGuitars Neil is an absolute guru and I've now trusted him with all my guitars and full refret on my prized strat

Another shoutout for Feline. Their fretwork is amongst the best I've seen, they've done a few fret dresses on my guitars and the fretwork on their builds is so silky and smooth.

Another +1 for Feline. He did my PRS. It plays like perfection with 6100’s on. He also did a part fret dress on an Ibanez I had and a set up on my Kotzen. All play beautifully. Oh and I’ve a custom Tabby on the way.
