Hi all. I wasn't going to do this until after new years. But Bjarne has really given me a fantastic lead in which I'd be silly to pass up on.
I am going to be starting a ~non-competitive~ review page of Chromatic harp customisers on the Harp On! website. A number of good to flattering comments were made about customisers with some of the chromatic harp reviews - and I was asked if I had thought of doing this.
Well, I will, next year.
So this is a call to all chromatic harp customisers out there, to let me know you are out there and tell what services you offer, a few pictures of your work/harmonicas and internet details so I can throw in links, addresses and use your page header as a header for your reviews.
And to their customers - let me know who you have enjoyed used and what sort of work you have had done.
Bill has had a head start in this (besides Bjarne's review). But I'll wait until I get material from some of you other geniuses out there before I put anything up. I'll probably start early next year, or at latest by February.
By the way. I don't really want comparisons between service, this isn't meant to be a competition, its a chance for people to read about peoples experiences with customisers and what can be done.
This way when someone asks "who can do such & such with my dying Hohner 270 ?", in addition to peoples comments on harp-l, they can also check out the review page and see whats available.

A quick note: Douglas Tate has kindly given me a very large and complete & up to date list of music that is useful to learn to play chromatic harmonica on. It is copyright and there for reference only. Thanks again Doug.
All the best. G
PS To Bjarne - offlist: may I use your review as well ?
