Banjo in need of repair!!!

The 5th tuning peg came out on my Leo banjo which I have had for over 30 years now. I need a GOOD repair guy that knows their stuff!! HELP ME!!! I've been told that it can't be glued. I don't want to send it off to unknown parts of the world so I would prefer someone local. I also have a few vintage instruments that may need repair in the future.

I am grateful for any help or advice!

Linda

banjo repair

Linda's Music in Decatur, Ill. has a very good repair guy. I let him work on my Gibson Mastertone. Best deal is to find when he is in his shop and show him in person what you have. He is independent of the Music Store but is there certain days of the week.
