PLEK experiences

[MaxKlein40]

Anyone had their MM PLEK'd? Thoughts/experiences good and bad please.

Isn't PLEK'ing by Gibson something they do to increase workmanship and quality of the guitars coming off the product line?

I'd say PLEK'ing is inherent in EBMM guitars.

I haven't needed to Plek a MusicMan bass yet, but I have had 4-5 other basses done and every one was better afterwards. If you want no fret buzz and relatively low action it's a very worthwhile thing.

PLEK is a tool, and the results you get are very much based on the person using it.

It's funny you bring this up because in the next week or so I am sending my Caprice to 13St Guitars to be converted to fretless and to compound the radius. They use a Plek machine...which wasn't a huge selling point for me but honestly it didn't hurt either. ;-)

PLEK is a machine that they use but that many other shops use as well.
