King85

Yep nothing in this one for me either. I generally sick to the if I wouldn't pay full price I don't need it at any price mind set

Been a little underwhelming so far, just as well, with my NGD and Randall MTS silliness lately

It was all a bit Shopping Channel, wasn't  it?
But not quite as slick. 

Mind you, I was tempted by the Brent Hinds and the little Fender acoustic......

No shit? Why didn’t you SAY something?!

Don't know if this has been mentioned but Amazon have deals on some D'Addarios.

Just annoyed that they have 12 gauge phosphor bronze 3 packs cheap but not 11 gauge.

Is that it then, all over?  A lot of places seem a bit vague about when deals end.

No, it'll be "Extended Black Friday Sale" over the coming weekend. That then gives way to Cyber Monday, which becomes "Extended Cyber Monday" until next Friday, by which time it will be December 6th, which will make it "Pre Christmas Sale", which will eventually give way to "Christmas Sale" then "Boxing Day Giveaway" then eventually "New Year's Bonanza".

I could go on

^^ and if the weather continues to be really cold, this could enable them to freeze prices

10% off everything at PMT is pretty good.  HX Stomp on the way after weeks of procrastinating.  Maybe an Iridium to do a comparison?  Then some new mini monitors... Somebody stop me!

I thought Black Friday was a condensed version of Black History Month. No?

Good Black Friday for me.....I'd been waiting to upgrade to wireless IEM's in the hope that something would come up. 10% off at PMT is a pretty decent chunk off.

I also played in an xpologistics warehouse to cheer up the workers.....I was fairly sceptical when I accepted the gig, but it was actually really fun....and apparently it didn't sound too bad either given the size of the space would normally call for arena size PA systems! Everyone seemed to really enjoy it.

I gave in and bought a 55” OLED.

blown away...both oled and 4K.  It looks better than the cinema.

Peach have some pretty decent deals.

OR have had some guitars listed for far too much for the rest of the year, depending on how you want to look at it.

There are one or two things on there I quite like the look of.  On the other hand I wasn't seriously considering them at full price, so am I only contemplating them now because there's a big discount?

That's quite possibly the case.
Last week I bought a guitar on an early 'Black Friday' deal but then after just a couple of days I realised that I'd mainly bought it for the wrong reason (price) and wouldn't have picked that same model if it weren't on the deal.
 
Eventually, I returned it (thanks to the shop, who were very understanding) and promptly bought the guitar I'd been hankering after for much longer at a reasonably good price (but that wasn't on some 'Black Friday megamadness!!' deal).

Sadly, I had to use two shops as the first one didn't have the guitar I ended up with, which eventually came from Coda. 

Act in haste, repent at your leisure, as the saying goes; especially at this time of year, it's worth remembering.    

at least you kept the spirit of black friday alive mate, regardless of the fact you returned it

you bought it without giving two hoots whether you wanted it, lack of desire or necessity doesn"t matter, spur of the moment purchases like yours are what this whole festival is about...

some people would do well to remember that

And do you remember how, like, 3 years ago, Black Friday wasn’t even a thing outside the US, and most people in other parts of the world had never heard of it? I find myself looking at my life as two distinct parts, the time before I knew about Black Friday and the time after I was enlightened

I was familiar with it from early 2000s as was on an American camera forum and they were always going on about amazing bargains they would get

I was all on track for a wise and fruitless black Friday. Then I caved and ordered a pink Jackson sl4x this morning. Just put me in the sewer with all the other black Friday junkies

I can happily say I don't know anything about black Friday.
