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.

Hi guys, I hope all is well. I just walked in the door from work, and I still have to go feed the cows. Here's a song called

Tail of the Tape (soundcloud.com)

I'll check bacjk in a bit.

It sounds... Angry... It sounds angry and like it's from a ProgRock band from 1968 to 1975.

The thread'll be here all night long, of course.

That's pretty much it. It's not really a song, I just had some room left on the tape. I sort of had an idea, and just like most of the ideas I get, I don't properly complete them. I could've recorded that bass part properly, but wtf the first-take was all I needed to capture the idea.

Anyone wants to, they can take any of my instrumentals and stick words to 'em. Just give me co-credit.

And I've got no problem fleshing the tunes out a bit, if anyone is into online collaboration.

Hmm... I've done some colab with my works in the past. I kinda miss when Nadeshda would put her vocals over my work.

I'm also remarkably interested in music lately - which may seem contrary to my output. I've not done anything new for quite a while - but, at the same time, I'm more excited about music than I've been in a long, long time.

I started a new project, where I take a look at inexpensive guitar equipment. I'm seeing how little you need to invest to get a quality instrument and it's amazing how good cheap gear is these days. I may even start a collection of cheap gear to see how it shapes up.

I paid $170 for a Chibson Les Paul (technically made in Vietnam) and it came with the low E maybe one cent out and an action better than you'll get out of the box with Gibson themselves. The only setup I needed to do was to move the low E less than a 16th of a turn.

On Sunday, I have a used (excellent condition) Fender Mustang LT-25 for like $140 being delivered by FedEx.

Man... The stuff new players have available (for not much money) is amazing.

That was different. I was expecting you to start singing any second all the way through

It needs lyrics. I can come up with melodies all day long, but trying to stick lyrics to 'em messes with my head. For me it's like trying to put together a jigsaw puzzle that's all the same color, and I just say fuck it, and quit.

Some folks can excrete functional lyrics on command. Sadly I'm not one of those people.

I can relate to the jigsaw puzzle comparison.
