Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link (fngt.gq). 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 you can donate.

I soldered up a couple new stomp boxes this week, so I had to check 'em out. The guitar sounds in the song are a red llama-type overdrive and/or a FoxxTone-type octave fuzz.

Back when I was younger, I made a few of my own stomp boxes. I was an EE student with a pure math minor before I switched for grad school as just an applied math major. So, while the knowledge was still fresh I had some fun. Somewhere in my stuff, I have my own fuzz box. I'll have to dig it out sometime.

I zen out when I solder. Maybe it's the fumes.

I built my first about five months ago. I've done a couple handfuls now, some special requests, some Christmas presents.

It's fun and easy. I don't know why I never did it before.

I bet it'd be more fun with today's tech. Hell, you can get an RPi for dirt cheap.
