Paying it forward. Thanks unclrob!!!

[tweedcab]

So I advertised a want ad for a truss rod wrench yesterday and unclrob kindly agreed to send me one at no charge. He even picked up the shipping. That was fantastic. I told him I wanted to pay him, but the gentleman in him politely declined. As a result I post here today to give to others what was freely given to me. In other words, we got a freebie going on here guys I would be remiss in doing anything less than to give back to this forum. Here is how it works.

1) Any forum member is eligible
2) You must post interest in this thread and I will note your screen name(no pm's please)
3) All interested parties must post by Wednesday 8/18/2010 by 8pm
4) No entries after this will be recorded
5) All screen names will be written down individually and the names will be thrown into a hat. Old school random drawing style.
6) My 7yo daughter will then have the honor of picking the recipient from the hat
7) I'll contact the lucky member via pm and ship it out postage paid

It's not a lot guys, and I wish I could give a guitar away, but this is what I have:

- Planet Waves Acoustic Guitar Humidifier. Brand new in the box(not the Humidipak)
- Brand new Martin SP strings 80/20, lights .012-.054
- Twice used Kyser Capo. Gold color
- 31 guitar picks mostly Fender 351 style, Dunlop Tortex .88, .73 and .60. Dunlop Gator .71 and .96. Fender medium. Larrivee medium whites. Martin triangle .73  Most have been "handled", but all are basically unworn.

Oh, and , thanks again unclrob!

I could sure use the Kyser capo......lost mine.  Please add my name in that hat......thanks

Now this has me thinking about my extra stuff........gonna start diggin tonight.  Just may have some of my own goodies to give away for free.

I don't have a need right now but wanted to THANK YOU. It's a wonderful gesture and I'll give you and Uncle Rob a prayer of gratitude and well wishes for the gestures. Musicians are very cool folks.

  I don't need anything, but thank you for being a giving person. I have been sent things by members and it is a treat to get a fossilized bone blank in the mail or a dvd on making nuts and saddles.
  I had one member offer to send me an old guitar.

  This is a place with a lot of nice folks.
                           Save my spot for another person, but thanks again.

Cool thread tweedcab. I dont need anything but want to say I appreciate the people here because they all seem to have an attitude of gratitude, always willing to help. Unclrob is awesome!!! 

[unclrob]

This is a wonderful idea.Mods I think this should be made into a sticky thing a mabob but I would hate to see it get lost here,maybe you all know a better spot.If I got something that anyone needs{parts,tools,a goodtime } and I can do it post it here.

Did the tool arrive yet?

[tweedcab]

Not yet. Mail gets here in it's own good time. I'll throw a post up when it arrives.

[swaino]

Very cool of you to take the time to do this! Please throw my name in the hat! I just ordered a D-03R and would certainly make use of the humidifier. Thanks again for your generosity. And I love the old school approach!

Hi tweedcab,

Very nice idea.

I host open stage events about once a month. I give away things like you have on your list - not for the best performance - but drawn at random just for performing. These items are a little richer than I can afford to do on a regular basis but it would be nice to do something special next month.

Please throw my name in the hat.

Thank you!

[old folky]

An excellent idea!  Please throw my name in too.

The wrench arrived this morning. Thanks yet again. I'm now tweaked and ready to play.

[saintandsinnerguy]

I've got some nice bone pins that fit a Larrivee (white with black dots) that I would love to throw into the pile. 

If you include it in your list, and draw someone's name............all I need to know is where to mail it.

If I keep digging, I may find more things........this is fun!   

[tweedcab]

Absolutely awesome saintandsinnerguy I'll keep you posted.

[gregor]

Great!! 

[Danny]

  I should have said this in my first post. Unclrob has helped me a lot with all of his advice. I called him and he helped me even more over the phone.

                      So, THANKS unclrob.

   Also I would like to throw in a Larrivee Store banner. It will make the pot a little sweeter.

I've played the 'pay it forward' game here on the Larry forum; gave a guitar away (an old Applause that needed some work) and received a capo and a set of golf clubs at two different times.

I'll throw in my username into ye-olde-baseball-cap for the 7 year old to pick.

I'm glad the wrench arrived alive and is the propper tool for the job.

I'd like to add fodder to the bowl.I have a Larrivee key ring that came with my LS09FM and a Larrivee tie clip shaped like a dread.Just pass the winners name and address to me and I'll get them out.

I'd also like to thank the others who are adding to the bowl.

[PastorChuck]

Thanks for the great spirit of generosity - you can add me to the list.

[unclrob]

Found anyother Larrivee Tie pin so thats 2 tiepins and a leather Larrivee key ring.
