A Luthier that pleases your needs in your world would be consideder a 'good' Luthier.

Ken, my friend, as usual you are wise. There are three luthiers in the greater Wellington area who will do basses, but no one specialises just in bass. There's a guy called Malcolm who, people tell me, is the best - he did a job on my plywood years ago. I've tried the other two and will ring Malcolm this time.
