I got mine out finally. First timer. Wish I would have budgeted more money on extra items....but I out everything into the pedal. I feel like I got a decent spread together but you guys have made some awesome packages.

The doorbell rang this morning and I rushed out of bed.
My wife pulled FOUR packages in through the door.

They were all from Amazon.
Goddamn. I am heartbroken.

HOOO BOY!

So not only has my Krampus Santa been teasing me with an alt via PMs (and some bumpin' custom holiday themed tunes), he's also stared deep into my soul and figured out what I love: books. music, sweets and FUZZZZZZZZZZZ. What's that? We all love those things? Ah, but you see, this shows he REALLY knows...

That's it. I'm spent. Also totally wired up on Jelly Babies.

So best.

Pushing Ice is the only Alistair Reynolds book I haven't read. I love his stuff.

Holy shit! I wanted to waituntil Christmas to open but I have a huge fam and this is the first year in a long time that everyone is coming in......so there is ZERO free time after the 24th to try everything out.

I saw my box on my porch and it had DannDubblEwe's name......LOVE him so much. I knew as soon as I saw the name that the loot would be intense. And it was. I asked for gear that would help me get my kids started rocking out. Maybe I'll cuss him later for the HIHATS but dayum my kids are going to freak when they see them. Probably eclipses what I got them for Christmas. The googoos are divine. My wife already claimed the extras after everyone gets one. Can't wait to try out that beautiful Multiplex Jr.

I'm an idgit with uploading pics on ILF for some reason....have them all taken but will upload as soon as I troubleshoot through.

And the art on that card!

So I'm now finally done my university responsibilities and this morning opened my secret Santa gift.

I'm sorry for the radio silence theactionindex, I've had your parcel set next to my guitars waiting to be opened as soon as my other obligations permitted. And I'm glad I didn't open it before because this pedal is the perfect solution to my dissatisfactions with my set up and I would not have set my guitar down and subsequently failed my exams and not finished my applications to remain in my program.

I've seen a lot of chatter on here about the demo tape fuzz but never looked much into it. But it solves the dirt conundrum I've been fighting with since I got my godin beautifully. It has a wonderful texture while still not getting totally washed out by the guitars sustain.

Slow Riots for New Zero Kanada, was the first gy!be release I ever heard and I have listened to it at least a hundred times digitally but having a vinyl copy of it feels like something that should have happened long ago.

The shirt fits great and the design is rad. The tea and hot chocolate both smell great and my girlfriend and I have already devoured one bag of the gummies, which were surprisingly awesome. Definitely the best gummy bears I've eaten since my illness forced me onto my gluten free diet.

Thanks Santa you are a bomb ass dude.

I'll add a photo to this post when I figure out how to do that from my phone.

And to my Santee, there was a delay waiting for your main gift to arrive from Japan so I wasn't able to ship it with as much time as needed to garuntee a delivery by Christmas but the postal worker said it had a 99.9% chance of arriving before the new year, stayin any unusual circumstances.

No worries! I can totally commiserate with the unfortunate reality of exams week. I just wanted to make sure it arrived safe and sound. :D

I'm really glad you enjoyed/are enjoying everything! :hug:

This came today! Thank you, Ian/Gigahearts_FX.

It's totally awesome Uglyface with LFO and an Ezekiel/Behemoth Jr. in one box with awesomely clean insides to compliment the ILFmas outsides. Just a beautiful pedal all around. Magical spirit clipping diodes too!

Also got some awesome UK chocolates with it...including my wife's favorite: kit-kats with quality chocolate!

Thanks again, Gigahearts_FX!

Also thanks to Neonblack for including me...hope you like your gift and little pre-gift that is coming.

Cheers all around.

Tracking hasn't updated for my outgoing package since Thursday. I'm afraid it might have snuck out for a weekend jag of smoking crack with a certain former mayor.
