So a running tally:

Fuzzy Picklez (?)
nbabmf
tuffteef (Aussie)
Monkeyboard (UK?)
Tigerbass
randel_07
htsamurai

With everyone's permission, I'd gladly do what I can to (help) organize this shindig.
If no objections, my email's ericbennetts@gmail. An email should include:

ILF-handle
Real name
Mailing address

And put something in the subject line like ILF Secret Santa or something, it makes my life easier :D

Let's give everyone til Thanksgiving to sign up. Then I'll generate up a big spreadsheet.

What sorta spending limit we looking at?


The Netherlands/Holland for me. Shipping shouldn't be THAT much though.

i'm sure it won't be a huge deal, because you also gotta pay to send shit back here as well.

i've heard no objections yet, so until told otherwise, i'm assuming ringleader role. Email by Thanksgiving to get in, $50-$100 was suggested (maybe like lil homemade fuzzes or devis or something would be neat), and as always, all is up in the air as to what we're doing. Adrianlee, could you make the title a bit more descriptive, so we can get more people in on this? :)

Ok so I'm kinda balled since shipping from the US might be cheap. Shipping TO the US is going to cost me at least 25 euros the rough equivalent of 40 bucks...

However if it's no biggie I could still say buy something at FH or PGS or something like that and have it sent to the adress of the person I draw. Won't be nicely wrapped and all though..

i'm still down even if the price range is 50-100.
that's more than enough for me to make a pedal or just send out one that's just laying around.

OK, so, Eric will be organizing the draw at a later date. Email him or me adrianleezambrano@gmail.com your ILF-handle, real name and address by Thanksgiving. Eric and I will put all the names together and complile a list of who gets who.

$50-$100 sounds like a decent range to me. The gifts can be anything as long as they can be used on your guitar/bass.

-Straps, picks, pedals, pickups, wtf ever.

You don't have to BUY it. You can make it. If making isn't your thing, you're more than welcome to buy it.

When sending the gift....you have to GIFT WRAP the ACTUAL unit (if its already in a box, great, if not, put it in a box) then SEND it in a larger box. That way the gift wrapping doesn't get ruined. Obviously send it out so that they get it before christmas.

Address the package with yours and their ilf and real name, ala:

adrianlee/Adrian Lee Zambrano
(insert address here)

You are NOT allowed to open the gift until christmas day. Once the gift is open, you must take a picture, say who it's from and post it in a thread we'll start at a later date. Clips are obviously welcomed!

If I'm missing anything, let me know.

DOES NOT have to be fuzz. But, seeing as we all love fuzz, I'm sure we wouldn't mind. :p
