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 theBuddha, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you are most likely either new here or completely retarded, 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 .

Yeah. Things like the nut and saddle too. Anything they can cheap out on while still making it look good I would think they would have to use to keep the parts costs down

I'll know more after it's in my hands AND I've had time to both play it and examine it in contrast with the original.

No doubt. It will be very interesting to have the real thing to compare it to. Much different than if I were trying to see how good it is

When I compared the Les Paul copy, not really a Chibson 'cause it doesn't have the Gibson headstock or pretend to be, it was definitely favorable. For $170, it was not as good as a $4000 Gibson but closer to it than one might think based on the price.

Modern cheap guitars are amazing, from what I've seen. You can get a solid playing guitar for under $100 now. Sure, you might need to adjust action and intonation, probably will need to file the nut, and probably want new strings... Even without doing those things, they're coming out of the box just needing a wipe down and a tuning.

It's amazing. I wish we had this shit available when I was growing up. When I was growing up, a cheap guitar was unplayable. They were closer to toys than they were to instruments.
