For anybody who didn’t feel the Group Buy or the Humble Bundle (both currently running) weren’t for them, I’m listening… Just sayin’ 🙂

Wait, what is this? I demand you post your Black Friday Wish List!!!! There has to be something that you don’t own that you want? Maybe a guitar???
Although, I’m asking my friend, Peter, not official, @peter-ik! Maybe you should create a second account?

Well, I somewhat recently picked up the Epiphone Alex Lifeson Les Paul and I have been enjoying the Marshall DSL40CR combo that I bought a bit before that… and I have all the TONEX Pedals/ONEs that I can handle plus TONEX Cab so I might not have much of a wish list.  Oh and I got the Alex Lifeson TONEX Pedal signed so I’ll take some Rush tickets to either Madison Square Garden or the Hard Rock near the IK US office 😉

I could use a C414 mic but even a Black Friday deal on that would be pretty expensive.  Software-wise I don’t mind giving props to competitors where due so since we don’t do a proper restoration suite I wouldn’t mind a deep discount on an RX upgrade.  Dorico Pro super deal for Cubase users (literally lifetime – Cubase’s, that is – user) would be great since my hand notation is not what it used to be.  Deals on things I subscribe to like OnSong and Ultimate Guitar would be great since they’re coming due soon enough.

Outside of music, after the GamePass price hike I’d like to stockpile some while I can still get it cheaper so that’s not really a BF deal.  I will buy some non-AAA / indie DLC at full price for a couple of games if they release some (Vampire Survivors – but their Castlevania DLC which I have already is getting a free huge update, Brotato, if Balatro adds DLC, stuff like that since they already price their games and DLC so low).  I didn’t buy the top tier Borderlands 4 so if they come out with any deal for the DLC I’ll go for it.

Oh and one of those fancy guitar pick brands, I always hear people raving about Blue Chip and Honey picks but they’re super expensive. I’m a cheap date for guitar picks and strings, I like what I like and what has worked for me for years.  I could probably use a deal on EXL110 strings or some of the specific sets I use on a few of my specific guitars (still nothing really expensive overall) and I believe I still have around 100 Dunlop 0.88mm green Tortex picks but I pick those up when they’re on sale.  I have a laser cutter/engraver so I could just pick up Delrin and make some myself.

Basically I have enough stuff to keep me occupied so likely I’ll only bite if there’s a great upgrade for something I already love and use or something I really want like Dorico but are more expensive than very capable alternatives.

I represent IK Multimedia so I will post official things. I also may just post random things as a real human being because I also represent one of those. I will try to be clear when I'm just speaking as Peter, instead of "Peter from IK".

I make no promises to be 100% accurate in doing so, though. 🙂
