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 theBuddha, 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.

Reminder: December 23rd is going to be our Christmas edition of the Friday Night Guitar Thread. Get to working on your Christmas songs now so they are done in time!

I was looking at the odd frets on this thing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFzRhfN_qRw

Oh, those are meant to make the intonation absolutely perfect.

I believe the technical term is "true temperament" but I'm kinda drunk.

I think that is what he said. True temperament. That seems to be a quality innovation

They're pretty unique. I have some fan fret, but not one of those. Fan fret is also a good attempt.

Every guitar is, by its nature, out of tune at some points along the fretboard. There are a variety of ways to try to fix this, including what you showed in the video thumbnail (I didn't watch it). Fan frets are another.

Another one is microtonal - but that's not only partially going to compensate and is more about getting things like quarter steps between the notes. So, instead of an F# and a G, you have a note between them.
