Thread Starter | More free stuff....let's do it again!
OK, giving away some things I didn't need yesterday was fun, and I even made a couple new friends in the process.
There's a Grace 101 sitting here collecting dust.
Need it?
It goes free to the first person who PMs me. All I ask of the winner in return is that you post in this thread and gift something you don't need to someone else... GO!
PS: Thanks to olivia_nb for the inspiration...

I'm not rich by any stretch of the imagination.
Here's the thing: giving is its own reward.
Really.

This is brilliant! I wish I had thought of it when I had something left to give away. Highly conscious act.

Hello all,
I am the very fortunate recipient of the Grace 101 preamp.
So heres how I'm gonna work it:
Since I only use "character" preamps, I've never had the opportunity to try a "clean" design properly. I plan on trying it out quickly to see if I'm justified in keeping it. If it's not for me, I will offer it back into GearSlutzLand.
And if I love it and can't live without it, I assure you all that I will return the gesture in kind with a nice piece of gear.
Ivan

What an awesome idea. I'm really into random acts of kindness it's cool to see someone just go for it on the internet.
It takes a lot of balls but it leads to a very rewarding life.

This reminds me of a thread on a band's forum where I tried to give away part of my record collection. The response here is much nicer, on there I had people accusing me of being a stalker, trying to do a scam etc. They just couldn't believe someone would give away something they could be selling.
Good for you!!

I'll PM you.
In the other thread similar to this, I already offered a Gameport to MIDI cable, but I haven't had any takers yet. Putting this out there again. I also have an older pair of Sony MDR-V250 headphones. The headband's cracked in several places and I've taped them up, and the inline volume control is a bit finicky (scratchy and channel-imbalanced at some points on the dial's travel). I don't use them anymore, but they sound pretty decent. PM me, folks!
