ILF Secret Satan feat. Rob Thomas—What’s in the Fucking Box?

[qersty]

I think this year it would be an exception to get things on tme

[fcknoise]

Yesterday santa delivered a box Now to stay strong, for just one more day

[cosmicevan]

So, like open on Friday night? Eat a giant edible and after the kids go to bed get crazy

[Dowi]

Definition of perfect timing: i got a box today about 30minutes before leaving the office until the beginning of next year.
48hours and it's opening time: I am THRILLED.

On the other hand, the box i sent out is M.I.A. somewhere between here and the destination and i am super pissed off 'cause it was supposed to be delivered last week.

merry christmas vidret!

do you know how hard it was to send that thing away? shit's nuts! that plus some huge power amp would be the ultimate guitar rig.

I think we only have four who haven’t yet gotten their inbound, and at least one of those is scheduled for delivery today. I know none of the Santanas nor Rob Thomases are happy about those delays. The good news is that’s a really low number of late boxes to go by past years.

Please share the word when your box comes in—I’m stalking all of y’all, so I’ll see it—and I’ll do a check in about late boxes on Sunday.

In the meantime, I look forward to some unboxings!

[Dowi]

Merry Christmas everyone, gonna open my box in less than 12 hours but I won't have time to post about it until the 26th, so again, may this holiday season bring some peace and happiness to all of you (at least that's what I need right now).

To my target: I am more than deeply disappointed about the box not getting there on time, especially cause I did everything to have it delivered at least one week before Xmas. Only thing I can say is that I hope/think it's gonna be worth the wait.

Merry ILFMAS

This box.

Holy shit Evan.

I don’t even know where to begin

*edit*

I had a multiple pictures and awesome long synopsis of each item but it kept getting deleted

Short re-summary

- amazing beer and chips. Already devoured half of them.

- the playlist with the explanation of each song is tops. Going to deep dive into it.

-I asked for fuzz that smokes bongrips and is late on rent and did even deliver. After spending and hour with it - it’s like my dirge melt with a fat low end and more control. Going to slam this fucker hard.

-I have been obsessing over a better method to practice on. I have looked at the cab m so many times - I am elated.

I am so un worthy of this box

[qersty]

yooo there's a bongzilla fuzz?

[MaxMaps]

Here is everything hooked up

damnit man, you ruined my scam, i told my satanee I had you to avoid suspicion, but you posted before he opened

I was so sure it'd work since you said you wouldn't open until xmas but goddamn fcknoise went to his parents and foiled my plans.

my evil planning aside, that's a bongripping fuzz. merry xmas maxmaps

you were so convincing also I should've opened the day before xmas, now that I am in the ronazone i dont know when i'll get home

Awesome! So very happy to see it all made the board!!! I had a lot of fun putting that together. I suppose I should go get super baked and then open my box...

[cosmicevan]

Had a REALLY AWESOME time opening that box!!!! But I'm scratching my head on who to send my thanks to. Satan who lives just outside of Kansas City...REVEAL THINESELF!!!!

I got all baked and I was going to do this video...it was gonna be a spoof on the JHS show cause I'm a middle aged white guy who can sit in front of a white wall/shelf with a shitton of pedals on it, but then I realized I have no video editing skills so it was gonna be a one take charlie so I set up the video camera and hit record and started my spoof video and it occurred to me how ridiculous this all was and it lost its fun fast so I just hit stop and opened the damn box.

Lots of pictures and details within...

NSFW: show

handy knife work only moderately damaged the external wrapping...


oh HEY NOW!!!! fat guy dance


what is this? some sort of riddle?


oh, the ribbon comes off and it's a note...


...but alas, it is from "satan" so not sure who to thank for this amazing package of happiness.

I thought this was all the candy, but there was SOOO much more. And dig that...a zine! Can't wait to dig in on these. For a little while about 20 years ago, one of my really close friends at the time ran a really rad zine.

...to be continued...

Mask Audio Electronics - oh HELL YES!!!! I'm a MASSIVE fan of Alec's work. He's the modern day king of fuzz. XL too...thank goodness, I'm the fattest I've ever been in my entire life right now so this one fits nicely! 2022 big resolutoin plans ::eyeroll:: let's lose some weight, buy less pedalz, be more human, put more love out there, get more fuzzy, satan more santees?


oh, well lookie what we have here?!?!



BAM!!!! DOOM Bloom!!! My first fuzz hugger!!! Can't wait to plug this in!!! I've been on such a huge fuzz kick lately (who hasn't been?)



and some Mid-Fi goodness!!! 3 knobs makes me guess it's a glitch computer??? Only one way to find out!!! Can't wait to dig in.

...believe it or not, but to be continued in one more part...
