I have a couple TEs that are a few years old and could use a greasing and tune up, nothing mechanically wrong with them. Any recommendations/ suggestions on who to contact with good turn around time.
Thanks

It's hard to beat Pimp My Rod and Reel (see top of the Tackle and Equipment threads page). Richard does great work, and has been tuning my TEs for years.

Just be sure to ask about turnaround time as he gets very busy at this time of year.

Very happy with Dave's Reel Service. As mentioned above ask about turnaround time as Mark does also get quite busy around this time of the year.

If no parts are needed, I can turn them in 3 days plus shipping time right now.

Take them to one of the Muskie expos where the Shimano reps will teach you how to service them and bring them to "like new" condition in no time . If that doesn't work or isn't an option send them to The Pimp and have him work his magic on them.

Also would recommend Pimp My Rod And Reel , But I think Richard should change his name to PIMPMASTER instead of PIKEMASTER.
