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 .

Nah, good shops don't mind. They figure you'll eventually come back. These days, they might worry that you're just testing a guitar to buy it online - but guitars are individually different, so the online version may not be the same as what you played in the store. So, buying the one that speaks to you the loudest is often a good choice. Narrow down your selection online, and then buy in person.

I'd suggest sending your guitar in for a good cleaning, reconditioning, and set up. You're not gonna spend that kinda money on it, but I bet your guitar would love it.

You know I ain't going to send it out for that!

If I ever do make it out your way, I'll bring my kit with me and set up your goddamned guitars properly.

It's AMAZING what a good setup will do, even on cheap guitars. The goal is to set the guitar up for the person, 'cause each person has different preferences. Alternatively, you set it up as "good" as it can be - meaning perfectly straight (if you can). Not everyone wants the action as low as it can be.

Hell yeah! Go for it! Have at them!
