Bruce, you have demonstrated not only the capabilities of your Plek machine, but the capacity of your heart. You truly touched the heart & soul of this gentlemen. The appearance of the original frets clearly displayed this man's complete and utter dedication to playing this guitar. Vibrations go much further then our perceptions are capable of realizing. Both of you have made a difference in the universe. I hope this man will live to wear out your frets!
I was interested in getting this done . I live in Nova Scotia Canada. Called the largest music store in Halifax . They don't have this machine. They said there is a place in Toronto Ontario that has. Thus would make it very expensive to do. Guess I am out of luck. 🙁
I believe the shop owner performed (and video taped) this free of charge to the customer to show what a difference the process could make. A cheap commercial for the shop owner.
The luthier did mention that this man was a street performer and also appears to be a painter. The guitar he plays is likely a big part of his livelihood, I’d say that’s sentimental enough to be worth a free fret job and setup
It was worth the wait to hear him play at the end. Beautiful. Just gorgeous.

Thank you for sharing this repair journey. Super cool!
Some treasures are worth more than money! I am glad he kept his guitar and fixed it up!
talk about a surprise ending with some sweet playing... wow
i did this to a $150 jackson bass...it sings.its amazing..i cant explain the feeling i get when it chords so beautifully
Now he can give up finger painting and stick with guitar full time! Great playing!
LMAO
Thank you for this video! Now I know that I can trust having my acoustic Ovation custom Balladeer Plek'd, and that it's well worth the cost.
Amazing tone!
Cool! So you dont need a new saddle? Are these stainless steel frets? Was was on there before?
Thats Awesome!!

You should look at Thomann, they have great prices on shipping and pleks and setups.
Great story
Would have been cool if you learned how to focus a camera
No point in watching this if you can't focus the camera.
Pretty good tone and volume for a cheap guitar.
Bad nails for the luthier...
Oh Ivan
Yes. Definitely needs a manicure.
Say no to drugs
Seems to me that the machine does the easy stuff......😑
waste of money.
unless that was really sentimental....who would spend money on a samick? lol
I love Samick instruments. :(

Yeah, because the sequence of letters on the headstock is all that matters. :-|
