Hi y'all, after doing a few fret-level/fall-away/crown jobs by hand (Epiphone SGs and 339s), I have a factory-stock Epiphone Les Paul that I REALLY love WRT tone. Only changes so far have been obviously truss rod set up, and putting the action where I like it. However, the frets are still taller and more square than I enjoy to playing on for an extended period, and there are a handful of noticeable high spots where buzz becomes a problem at my usual action height. So while it could benefit from the love-labor of me doing the fretwork by hand, I'd rather finally take the 'precision plunge' and have this guitar Plek'd. I would like to support a local, reputable luthier here in Houston, if possible. If anyone can recommend a solid shop who has (and knows what they're doing with) a Plek machine, or if you have any shops to warn me away from, it would be deeply appreciated.
