Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, . That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask COF, Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then .

The links are working now. thanks. I will check them out.

I don't know anything about rocksmith, do you just play along with the video game on your guitar and it listens to you and scores you?

Pretty much, but it's too accurate and not accurate enough at the same time lol. It's essentially tab in the format of those 5-button guitar games from 2005 (there is another mode where it flashes a bunch of crap about combos/streaks and kicks you out of the song if you miss too many notes). It's got some decent scale/chord games and a track looper/speed control so you can work out riffs and stuff too. It's mostly good for playing a wide variety of solos and stuff half-assedly. For memorization old school charts and tabbed out riffs are probably the better way to go but it'll make you forget the time and play for 4 hours straight. Also the automatic tones absolutely blow, you're hearing my Helix not the game's Zoom pedal from 2001 tier FX. I'm usually a lil better at it but I've been doing car shit for a few month and not playing too much.

Do you need a rocksmith guitar to play that or just any electric guitar?

Any electric (or acoustic with a mic) but it tends to prefer a hotter signal, so hummbuckers (but you can get singles working better with some hackery/external equipment). It wants you to use a (shitty, noisy) proprietary cable but so long as you get it on PC there are a couple of different hacks/methods to get around that. I'm running through a Helix and just stomp boxing tone changes myself. Also there are a bunch of unofficial 'CDLC' tracks that the community makes but again only on PC (Floyd, Zep, Beatles, the stuff that never get's licensed or hasn't been, a billion metal tracks...whatever you can find a guitar pro file for that isn't already in game), then there are the paid DLC (Alice in Chains, Stevie, Jimi...) and the handful of songs that were in the base game or the last base game.
