I can't wait until tomorrow, so here we go!

String height at 1st fret: 0.007"
Neck relief at 7th: 0.007"
Action at 12th: E 6/64ths, e 5/64ths

This is exactly what I asked for.

Playability: 9/10
Intonation: 10/10

Comments: they also repaired a small nick on the side of the body at the lower bout and did an excellent job there.

Sounds great, really got some oomph. I was concerned that going down to 12's might rob me of that but not a bit of it. I beefed up the sound further by adding Martin Liquid Metal bridge pins.

Went over their work looking for faults and found none.

So you know what I'm going to say - highly recommended. But bear in mind this only refers to CCGX's Plek service. I can't speak for their non-Plek setups.
