My Boucher is getting "Pleked".

[Daniel Grenier]

I just dropped off my Boucher OM with my Luthier for a Plek job! Not that there is a problem per se with the guitar but I am always in some form of Alt tuning and after talking to my Luthier, an improvement from this visit is pretty much a certainty.

Now, my Luthier owns one of just four Pleks in Canada. He is also a contractor on Plek work (he's off to Houston TX next week to train a new buyer) so he knows what he's doing. He also never undertakes a project unless he is confident an improvement will result. Furthermore, Linda Manzer suggested to me I try this as she calls it "magic".

All this to say that I look forward to feeling and hearing what the difference will be after a visit into this complex machine.

Looking forward to your thoughts, *after* the plek process.

I wonder where in Houston, as that's where I now live after moving from Toronto?

Hope you like the result.
Whether done by a human or a human programmed machine, a good set up is well worth doing.

No idea where in Houston but Plek has the name and country of Plek owners on their website so you may find that there if you're interested.

OP here. I just picked up my Boucher after it got "PLEKed". I am impressed by what that did to my guitar! Perfect setup, spot-on intonation, incredible action, etc ... He PLEKed it in/for DADGAD and installed a new set Elixir Nanoweb HD (0.13-0.53). I just love how the guitar feels and sounds right now. $325cdn (~$240usd) well spent indeed.
THANK YOU, Ian Weston!

Glad to hear that! From what I understand, operator training and savvy is a very important part of the process and it looks like you found a winner,
