Plek on Bass Guitar?

lol this is the next video on YouTube after another video I am watching XD

I’ve noticed a LOT of people seem to equate a plek job and a setup as the same thing. But it isn’t. The Plek machine levels/crowns the frets. A human comes in afterward and dresses/polishes and does a setup.

My biggest takeaway from all this is: do not get an instrument plek’d unless you are dead set on your string brand and gauge, and the tuning. And it’s still prone to operator error :eyes: But it might also tell you it only needs a better setup XD $300 to be told that would be a big oof (lol not that anyone doing the plek’ing would tell you :eyes: Edit apparently the company in that video only charges $35 if it scans perfect and just needs a setup)
