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 .

LOL Y'all need to get the tools and watch a few videos. You can learn to level frets pretty easily - and to do a setup.

That MIGHT make the guitar more playable. Might...

You can also fix some tuners, or just replace 'em. Cheap tuning machines are available that will work.

But, it might be kinda pointless.

Tuning pegs are easy to replace. Frets might be a little more difficult

You can level 'em if you get a fret rocker and a leveling beam. You then need to file them to put a top surface on 'em and polish them up. It's a 2 hour job, if you go slow and are deliberate. You can do it faster, but there's no need to hurry. It's not like you're a luthier doing it for pay.

Replacing frets is a lot more trouble... I can do it, but I'm not gonna. I'm definitely not doing it on a cheap guitar. I'm also not going to do it on my own guitars. I've got a luthier for that.

I have a leveling beam but not a fret rocker. Except me, I rock the frets
