I bought a Used 00028EC Martin, and it has two BUBBLES between the tuners on one side of the headstock. It looks like maybe a reaction to a Wall hanger. They look like a blister would look on your skin when popped open. How can I find a luthier in NYS. I am in Florida, NY, near West Point. These are small, the soze of a pea or less. Should I dad som clear or crazy glue in there to stop the spread?

Stay away from the crazy glue.......for Martin touch ups try Alex Grey in Chestertown NY, Steve Kovacik in Scotia (518-381-3958) or David Nichols (custome Pearl Inlay) in Malone.

Michael, How old is this guitar? Martin had a problem a while back with finish "blistering" due to a bad batch of filler. Sounds like this might be one of them......
