Gino Posted February 16, 2007 Posted February 16, 2007 Just got my Tele back from the PLEK job!I read a lot about it on different boards and it took a while until I realized the guys who started it all a right up here in Berlin! The don't do PLEK-jobs themselves anymore, but they have a master luthier right next door to their facilities who did the PLEK job with fret dressing and setup. WOW, really nice result. I had to shell out 180.- EUR, but it was worth it.My tele is a 1993/94 American Standard with a popular body (they did some standards in popular in the early 90's due to some environmental issues) very light and resonant, Barden pups, Callaham AmStand vintage bridge, RS-kit coming. It always had a nice tone and lots of sustain, but since having the FM Special I am somewhat spoiled as to necks and action.The PLEK-job really is the frosting on the cake. Highly recommanded !Gino
Disturber Posted February 16, 2007 Posted February 16, 2007 They do PLEK'ing here too. With good results I've read. But it's rather expensive compared to getting a normal fret-dressing at my favourite luthier. He's very good and somehow I think it feels better when someone gives my guitars a little personal TLC, rather than sticking into a machine. What happens it it runs havoc?
Guest Meshuggah Posted February 16, 2007 Posted February 16, 2007 Gonna have one done on my NAMM Washburn soon as I get the WCRs.
