Which guitarist doesn't know this scenario: the instrument sounds excellent, looks precious and sits well in the hand, but somehow it is hard to play. A problem, that can be rectified.

Next to the tone it is the playability that is one of the most important characteristics of a musical instrument that determines its quality.With the plek process the most optimal string action possible for each instrument can be guarantied, matching the individual style of the musician. An optimal playable guitar sounds better: the strings do not hit against the frets while playing and intonation problems, that occur because of a inadequately high string action, are eliminated.
The plek pro has been developed to be used in guitar production factories and/or service-repair shops as a tool that not only does precise fret dressing but also helps with quality control and R&D. plek pro speeds up the production process and raises the quality of instruments to an extremely high and consistent level.This computer controlled device scans and dresses a guitar under actual playing conditions, strung and tuned to pitch. This is a major breakthrough since the plek pro identifies precisely what needs to be done for perfect fretwork, executes this rapidly, and delivers perfect results on the instrument when restrung.
