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.

It'd probably be nice to compose on - except nobody could cover you properly/effectively.

But, yeah, doing it as a drop D extra string might make a nice tone. And, I suppose, you're not actually obligated to use it.

I haven't been this excited to play guitar in a long time. I have no idea why. I mean, I'm getting a cheap fucking guitar with a cheap ass amp...

LOL I bet I can use 'em both to melt faces - though I will probably need to mic the amp up to a bigger amp if I wanted to truly melt faces.

It is awesome to have something to be excited for. Has you package with the first cheapo arrive yet?

Nope. It's supposed to be here tomorrow.

I haven't been this excited for a new guitar in a long time - and I've bought guitars in the 5 figure range in that time. Shit, the last 'big' buy included a '65 SG that was nearly six figures.

And, here I am excited over a guitar and amp that, together, cost less than $280 total... More excited, even...

I think it might be that I have all sorts of expensive guitars.

I do have some cheap guitars - but most of those were from my original collection, before I retired. And, for the sake of clarity, I considered a $400 Ibanez to be cheap. I have some Epiphone and some Squire type guitars.

It might also be that I can build out a collection of cheap guitars - keeping them as their own sort of collection - for not a whole lot of money. I've already started shopping for my next cheap guitar - but I'm going to force myself to wait a while.

A $400 Ibanez is cheap compared to most the high end guitars that go for $4000
