That would no doubt be guitars starting with G.
Suhr pleked frets are immaculate. The Dueseys I've met have been pretty good too.
The worse ones were indeed Gibson that I've played.

PLEKing doesn't touch the nut if I'm not mistaken. It's to do with the frets all being level. They can be level and a nut can still be badly cut by a person in a factory
Isn't the nut being cut in that video at about 9:40ish?
Oh wow they must have changed it, could have sworn it used to just be a fret thing
