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 .

None of the guitars I play seem to have a bowed neck

That's always good. Where you live, I'd expect some concave and convex motion due to the humidity changes.

A 3' level would work but I'd prefer something smaller. Sometimes, you only need to level a small section. Like, over time it will ramp up over the fretboard part that goes over the guitar body - it's known as 'ramping'. You really only need to file those down sometimes.

The objective is to take off as little material as possible.

Oh, they make AWESOME fret polishing tools that look like pencil erasers. They are the bee's knees!

Oh, man... Doing so makes your bends so much nicer.
