Plek is many things to many different people. We like to think of it as a question – What makes for the best possible playability in a guitar? – which we have turned into a machine.
It is also way of looking at the fingerboard, the frets, the strings, of your instruments. It is the application of decades of research and experience, and dialogue with master guitar builders.
It is a philosophy, an idea of quality and playability, as well as a technology.
For more information on Plek machines, the Plek system, and Plek technology, take a look at the links below. Whether your focus is on guitar production, quality control and research [making], or on repair and maximum flexibility [repairing] or whether you are a musician looking to get the best out of your instrument [playing], you are in the right place.
Plek machines provide an invaluable set of tools for professional guitar makers. If you are a guitar manufacturer producing upwards of 400 instruments per month you ought to start by taking a look at the Plek Pro. If you are an individual luthier or a small manufacturer, it is probably best to check out the PLEK STATION.

The #dimeslime tribute is done! This was a fun project, particularly because of the paint. I’m quite proud of this one. My one Achilles heel of the entire project was the inlays, I’m constantly reminded of how difficult maple board inlay work is every time I do it, no matter how good I feel I’m getting at it. My only regret on this project was not using an ebony fretboard, I think the end result might have looked cleaner because of it.
Either way, I’m stoked on this one. I think Dime would have dug it.

PSA: If you’re going to park your car on the causeway at 3am, you should probably turn on your hazard lights.
Don’t worry - the driver is fine, and the bass will be. Stay tuned!

Good fretwork is shiney, reflective, mirror finished frets on a smooth fingerboard. #chefkiss #luthiery #luthier #guitarrepair #plek #getplekd
Look closer… closer… CLOSER!
We are really good at making things shiny, but did you know we’re also good a making things not so shiny? This satin epoxy job is keeping it classy.
