RUFFCUT

Steven · 05-25-11, 11:03 AM

LPF member RUFFCUT deserves a great complimentary THANK YOU for sending me his special order pickguard and a nice HD sweater, free of charge. An astonishing kind gesture, that I hardly can belive.
It's hard for me to respond to him in an appropriate way, but my wife said that it is not always neccesary to 'pay back' with cash or any other gifts. Just appreciate your present from RUFFCUT and send him a warm thought, she said.
I will,........

Me being Norwegian, you'll have to explain.

He is a good guy and a friend.....We at the Forum take care of our Forum Brothers.....

I had a set of pick-ups that I gave him and some day he will return a favor,
that is just the way it works.....

Favors are re paid in more than just money......

I think the world is missing this now days.....

What a cool example of Forum brotherly goodwill! Props to Ruffcut, a true gentleman in every sense of the word

P.S. My size is XL, Ruffcut

Quite right, I had a Fatboy switchtip and some aged screws I didn't need so I sent them on to a Forum bro that had a use for them - just a little favour that didn't merit any thought of payment. A set of pickups is a much bigger favour, granted - you too are a gentleman!

Maybe not on the same dollar level as Ruffcut and tspoon, but Don sent me an amber jewel light for my home built 5E3 - no charge and he paid to mail it. I offered to send someone a Gotoh bridge because they wanted to try an ABR style (they actually declined, but I tried). There are some good guys on this forum. I remind myself of that when I read a thread filled with negative posts.

RUFFCUT · 05-25-11, 12:30 PM

Steven, your wife is right, and your very welcome my friend. Hope they both fit...

Trans-Am · 05-25-11, 01:34 PM

...now if that is the screwless p/g he's still making?

Please confirm. I have one of the first run batches he made, and still have to this day.

Peace!!

Yes it's somewhat been lost in this materialist/consumerism based world we live in.......................but it's making a determined comeback as evidenced here

Forum member misterdistortion sent me some screws gratis and paid the postage. Gestures like that give me a warm glow and restore my faith in people when there's so much nastiness around us.

Forum "bro Sean made me a copy of "Man of the World, The Peter Green Story", which he sent all the way from England. Much appreciated.

frazettafan · 05-27-11, 05:38 AM

I'm not surprised. "The 'Cutt" has always come across as a cool bloke - thats a great gesture!

I have that very documentary on my DVD hard drive, along with the Fleetwood Mac documentary "Don't Stop". They were both repeated on the BBC recently, and are good to watch together.

Scott Auld · 05-27-11, 10:45 AM

That was really nice of you, RUFFCUT, and that H-D sweatshirt will be awesome especially in Lillehammer.

Black58 · 05-28-11, 03:16 PM

A WONDERFUL gesture!

BTW, Dan (BFS), I didn't forget. Money just got really fuckin' tight, REALLY fuckin' fast!

.. WILL be in touch, soon!
