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 .

I know I've said this before, but you really could do with getting some better guitars.

I suppose you might be able to dress your frets, filing and leveling type of work - but most folks want a luthier to do that for 'em.

I have all the tools for it and have done all of that myself. Hell, I've even properly repaired broken guitar necks, fixed the bridge work inside acoustic guitars, and re-wired electric guitars with new pots and new capacitors.

I still send it off to a luthier - but I didn't when I was poor. Chances are, they can do it at your local guitar store for not much money.

I dropped this acoustic guitar that I have a few weeks back and the second and third frets were nothing but fret buzz on 4 of the strings, so I got an allen wrench out and gave a few turns to the truss rod a little bit and the buzzes went away. I am a luthier LoL

LOL A truss rod probably shouldn't even rotate that much. You should be giving 'em like a quarter turn or such...

I'm picturing you cranking it around and around and saying "Good enough!" (Probably while drunk.)

And it is awesome...

I wouldn't want you any other way.

No, lol, I only gave it about a quarter turn, if that. LoL
