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 COF, 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 .

So that I don't wear it out or detract from its historical value.

(I have played it. I don't want to detract from the value, so I think I've played it like three or four times.)

Shit, I have a pre-war Martin D-28 that was six figures. I've played it, but I've been pretty gentle with it.

Yeah you have to play it even if just a little!

I've probably played at least a little bit on every guitar I own. I take 'em out to inspect them when I get them, usually tune 'em up and ensure everything is working, and then I tune it down a little for storage. So, they all technically get played at least a little.

Then, I take 'em out to show people, or to see if time has done any damage, and play 'em gently before they get put away again.
