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 know I've said this before, but you really could do with getting some better guitars.

I suppose you might be able to dress your frets, filing and leveling type of work - but most folks want a luthier to do that for 'em.

I have all the tools for it and have done all of that myself. Hell, I've even properly repaired broken guitar necks, fixed the bridge work inside acoustic guitars, and re-wired electric guitars with new pots and new capacitors.

I still send it off to a luthier - but I didn't when I was poor. Chances are, they can do it at your local guitar store for not much money.

I dropped this acoustic guitar that I have a few weeks back and the second and third frets were nothing but fret buzz on 4 of the strings, so I got an allen wrench out and gave a few turns to the truss rod a little bit and the buzzes went away. I am a luthier LoL

LOL A truss rod probably shouldn't even rotate that much. You should be giving 'em like a quarter turn or such...

I'm picturing you cranking it around and around and saying "Good enough!" (Probably while drunk.)

And it is awesome...

I wouldn't want you any other way.

No, lol, I only gave it about a quarter turn, if that. LoL
