Easy. Just tell me what you have to offer, and it’s put in the pool. Once the final vote off of overall battle of the rig is completed we go by order of winner to pick a prize from the pool. So first prize winner takes their pick (usually through me so I know what’s left and no one picks the same thing someone else got), then 2nd prize takes theirs, etc. I’ll pm the prize holder the person who picked their prize and their address and they ship it out.


Ok, I will offer up this little guy. Kaisertronics DAMN treble booster. Because everyone needs a treble booster at some point in their life. One of the fancier ones I have.

Yeah we did. I’m gonna start the voting polls tomorrow morning. I’m not worried about locking the threads at this point. If anyone has an entry or two to get in before the morning comes they’re welcome to add them.

GGF may not have the biggest user base on the net, but we easily have some of the best rigs per capita per active user. And that's not saying everything's super boutique or anything. It's just all good gear that works well for what we need it to and could probably be utilized by any one of us. And most of us have been around long enough to have weeded out the cheap shit that really sucks and the overpriced shit that really sucks.
