Thomann Plek Service Premium NIS

J'ai acheté d'occasion une belle Lag Arkane 200, toujours sous garantie.
Cependant, celle ci avait le défaut si connu des Lag; (Françaises ou chinoises); c'est à dire les frettes qui se décollent avec le temps.

Ce qui donnait un instrument injouable, frisant de partout !

Même si la guitare était de faible valeur commerciale contrairement à sa valeur sentimentale, je me suis tourné vers le service plek de Thomann.

Et bien je n'ai pas été déçu.

Du premier au dernier mail avec Thomann, toutes les instructions ont été claires sur comment envoyer mon produit, quel était le meilleur traitement pour celle-ci etc.

Un peu de jours passent et surprise : un avis de passage chez moi.

Elle est enfin arrivée !

A première vue superbe, j'ai préféré prendre mon temps pour tout regarder avant de mettre cet avis.

Et bien, je ne suis pas déçu.

Le re-frettage est superbe, certains pièces ont été changée sur cette guitare, sans engager de surplus (notamment les fines tuner au niveau du floyd)

Je n'hésiterais pas à envoyer mes futur guitares pour ce genre de service :)

Merci Thomann.

Sent my jazzmaster custom shop for a classic PLEK SERVICE, had an email saying i had to refret the neck because some fret was moving and then the plek service was impossible . you can't communicate directly with the "luthier" but was ok . all i can say is i'm more than happy with the precision of the plek process, new frets, new nut (bone) and of course new settings, low action, not buzzing at all, i never had a guitar with a such precise, straight neck, the luthier and the plek machine are a perfect mariage ! (more than a luthier alone, even if gifted ..) highly recommended .

I still remember very well one night, 34 years ago when my father brought that guitar from a business trip. At that time, in the eighties, for eastern Europeans, it was very difficult to get American guitars.
I was 13 years old and I did not know what to expect. When I open the box, there she was - It was 1983 metallic silver Gibson sg special.
This guitar was simply perfect! The frets were different from each other, which pointed to precise manual work and intonation, sustain and playability were excellent. For many years, this was my only guitar, and a lot has gone by her. Thousands of performances, rehearsals, traveling ...
For the long time I simply did not need another guitar because when compared with the guitars of other musicians it was much better in every aspect. Although this guitar was part of the lower price Gibson guitar range, it was just of very good quality. Finally, ten years ago, I started buying other guitars because I could, but she was and remained my first and only six string love.
After over 30 years of playing frets were so worn out that I decided to give her to local, very recognized luthier for new fret job. He did ok but I was not satisfied. The guitar simply lost its magic.
And then I bumped into PLEK machine videos on YouTube. After I found out that Thomann has PLEK machine in its service department decision was made. After about three weeks of waiting the guitar was back home and when I strummed that first G major chord I knew that magic is back. Intonation was outstanding again and guitar was ringing like that first night 34 years ago. My love was born again.
Besides fretwork, Thomann technicians changed nut, dressed and cleaned ebony fingerboard artefacts and changed one pick up screw which was broken.
The only small objection would be about new nut that had not been sanded up visualy nice.
Conclusion:
Yes, it is expensive, but it was worth it. I strongly recommend this service!

Nach nunmehr 70 Auftritten und regelmässigem Üben haben die Bundstäbchen aufgrund meines ziemlich harten Anschlags und percussivem Spielstil etwas gelitten.
Thomann hat eine Lösung. Plekservice! Austauschen und Einschleifen der Bundstäbchen.
Super gemacht! Klampfe klingt wieder sauber und schnarrt nicht mehr.
Da ich die Gitarre auch bei Thomann gekauft hatte , gab es sogar einen Nachlass!
