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 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 .

It's often stamped on the headstock (back) and on the body near where the neck joins. It may also be hidden, stamped under a cover plate or even under a pickup.

You can then use the serial number to determine quite a bit about the guitar. That helps in proving what it is - but actually isn't definitive. People have tried cloning valuable guitars and passing them off as things they aren't. Where there's a market for forgeries, forgeries exist.

Before the 'net, it wasn't all that easy to go by serial numbers unless you were pretty much an expert and had the reference materials collected for your own library.
