Going to leave this open until the pedal is ready to ship, which will probably be mid January. But then again we are already a large group of people, even if everyone keeps it for a week only we are going on 4 months roughly, maybe five if one accounts for shipping time and people not making it to the post office in time.

So: hop on, but you should know that you will only get the fun stuff happening in April or May.

So here we go!

First off, Chris has asked me to post a picture of the newest Device he's been working on:

And to those who enjoy White Noise there is this one brewing:

But enough with the advertising. (I'm surprised I did not yet get a mail from the Mighty Tom de Dalt)

I'd be grateful if y'all saved me the hassle of writing a PM to each of you, so how about you send an email to these coordinates:
jptrfxtourbox2016@gmx.de
With your ILF Handle, real name and Address so we can make a list.

:( Going to have to drop out, I'll be moving in March/april and no idea where to exactly yet. Could be messy so best to avoid the potential stress.

Updates UPdates UPdates

ONE:
I have now received almost all of the addresses and will soon compile the list for Chris so he's in the know about where all of you guys live!
I do have a question for you transatlanteans though. Is it better to ship EU-CAN-US or EU-US-CAN? The first part of the trip from the EU is the same where ever, so we would not care where to send it first, but maybe there's a huge difference on your side of the pond. Also, if you ship inside the US, is distance an issue? Should I try to plan a route?

TWO:
Chris is crazy busy and his circuitboards are late from the manufacturer, so there will be a short delay before the start of the tourbox. We could both only guess at how long it will take but I wager the tourbox should be winging it's way to me by the end of the month.

THREE:
Those of you that want a shirt should send 12€ directly to Chris via paypal. I have his address but I won't post it out in the open. If you want a shirt, send me a pm and I'll give you the contact. Make sure to include you choice of color and size. The shirts will then be included in the tourbox and make their way to you slowly but surely. This is easier than going through the shop, because the shop automatically adds shipping costs and we don't want that.

Reminder of the shirts:

The usps service uses zones
If there's 4 people in the us, it prob won't make a difference. If there's 189 people it will make a huge difference.

I will buy a shirt later. I live right across from Canada (my bedroom window faces Canada, I'm less than 500 yards away etc) so it might be cheaper for me to send it?

Lemme know if that would help.

Alright, thanks for the info dudes, so I'll plan the tour around the US by proximity and put Xleroyx as last so he gets to mail it to our Canadian rabbit. Blindrabbit is it ok for you to be last in the American leg and the one to mail it back to the EU?

The box will now include the Schwercraft Fuzz, Tesla Wolf OD, Gainsaw Distortion and the Drumthing. There will be some sweet noise from this thing! After we have all signed it and played with it Chris will put it up on eBay and auction it off for a good cause. I think there is an orphanage he customarily supports but I don't know for sure.

If anyone wants to cut to the chase, he said he will auction off an etched one-off Tesla Wolf on his Facebook page as soon as he hits 600 followers.

I'm pretty excited about this thing, especially now that the drum thing is included. That looks like some serious fun!

I miss west michigan so much. I plan to get on out there in a couple weeks for shiz.

You guys DO know that this tour box will have me spending all sorts of money that I don't have, right? I guess that's the point. I'm super excited to check these out, and I'm going to try to rig up some kind of audio/video recording.

I know this is going to sound lame, but I'm a little unnerved by what the tourbox would cost for me to ship it back to EU at the end. Last year I sent a single pedal to the Netherlands for $60. Any ideas what the dimensions of the box are going to be (roughly)?

If it is like $100 for the tourbox shipment, why not just buy a pedal directly instead? :idk: This is what is going through my mind. I know I would lose out on playing through the whole box, but... :facepalm:
