Plek Guitar Technology (A+D Gitarrentechnologie) is the firm behind the unique Plek machine - an innovative high-tech tool for the analysis and processing of instrument fingerboards and necks. Plek machines are in use in a variety of scenarios throughout the world, including large-scale production, R&D, quality assurance, guitar repair and custom guitar production. Our aim is to provide high-precision tools to guitar makers and luthiers that give them complete control of playability, neck curvature and fret heights at all positions, accurate down to 1/1000th of an inch. Our innovative technology not only delivers previously unattainable diagnostic insights into the state of an instrument's neck and fretwork but also makes it possible to craft solutions and improvements that would have been impossible in a bygone age.
The Plek team is made up of diverse talents, including engineers,luthiers, technicians,
software designers and business consultants. Everyone at Plek shares a common passion - we respect
tradition and we love guitars. We understand musicians because most of us are musicians ourselves. We know what makes a guitar good and we know how to get the best out of any instrument. Our experience in the music industry gives us unique insights into different forms of guitar and bass production, hand-crafting, repair and manufacture. We are not in the business of selling guitars. We are in the business of helping you make your guitars the best they can be.
All our products and services comprise more than two decades of extraordinary and
one-of-a-kind research. Our enduring dedication has led us to improve one of the guitarâs most important
quality criteria â playability. Optimal playability in a guitar depends not just on the guitar maker's skill, experience, intuition, knowledge, craft and passion but on the right tools for the job.
We provide the tools. You provide the rest.
