Happy NGD. Looks fantastic. I seriously pondered over the 335 and 339, it was a difficult choice. before settling on the 335. Though, I still hear that 339 calling out to me. Always preferred the colour that you chose over the pelham blue. I’ll be interested in hearing your opinion of the plek over time.
Very pretty guitar, I really like the 339, it’s that bit smaller and easier to handle. I think you’ve made a good decision to have it plek’d, it will repay for itself over the years to come, there’s nothing like a really well set up guitar!
Thank you for the information. Another thing learned. So basically it’s a cnc machine with a microscopic scanner attached to it?
It does seem to take some work out of the luthier’s hands.
Happy NGD
Just looking at that beauty made me realise I’ve been neglecting my semi-hollow.
I’ll be following with interest what you think of the plek job.
Interesting video. $250 seems like a lot of money for a setup. I’m a cheapskate and would be thinking maybe buy some better tuners/pickups and pay a luthier to do the job? Or buy a higher range guitar with the money?
I suppose the main advantage to this is you can be confident your new, beautiful guitar arrives in perfect playing condition, making love at first sight (play) much more likely. Bonding with your instrument is worth a lot
