Pay is 60% of all jobs done not related to the Plek, plus specific numbers for jobs associated with the Plek (i.e. prepping a guitar with a nut blank for the Plek, or finishing off the nut by rounding the corners and buffing it out), which equates to $40-65/hour depending on how quick you work.
Dependable transportation is a must.
