Season's greetings. I'm not sure how many updates I can do this year, as I'm not spending a lot of time at my desk these days, but here's a few early picks.
Select BOSS delays are heavily discounted.
Ex: The DM-101 is $299 (regularly $499) / approx 399€ across the Atlantic with import fees, and the 202 is $80 off. According to their product pages on Sweetwater, this discount is effective for the remainder of 2024. Also, the SD-3000D is a robust 50% off.
Some Pigtronix pedals like the Cosmosis (morphing reverb), Gloamer (attack decay), and Star Eater (fuzz) are also slated to be on sale through the end of the year.
...I'm not sure how many people have sampled the DM-101 due to its $500 tag. I played one a few months ago, and I liked it, but I didn't $500 like it. If you're going to pair one with an external ramper or sequencer, I could see it being a nice substitute for a Tonal Recall or a DMM. Depending on December funds, I'd be tempted to get a pair of 101s to run in sequence. The Cosmosis is another pedal I've been monitoring, but was waiting on a sale. It's somewhat challenging to do anything new in the reverb field, but I thought this one had some intriguing possibilities in the demos I browsed.
Korg Drumlogue at the Korg Outlet on Reeeeeeverb is $290 shipped, but they will offer you $266 b4 taxes if you follow the listing. In that case, you also can counter, probably for a few dollars less? I can't remember how this worked for me before.

Basically installing super-Dexe'd programs, WAV parties, etc., I don't have a computer for that kinda thing, etc., but it's all in good fun
Wow. Yeah, that puts it on the radar. The logue plugin architecture really opens up the boxes that have it. Here it makes it more than “just a drum machine” and would keep it in play when another bigger money/more serious device comes along.

Fender’s Amazon store has the Shields Bender Fuzz for $216.40 and there’s an additional 15%-off coupon on the page that you can apply—so $183.94 plus tax.
That’s really pulling. Any long-term verdicts on this pedal?

P. sure most of the users of this peddle are now deaf (4 reel!), and that's as solid an endorsement as I can think ov
Fender's got their BF sale up. https://www.fender.com/en-US/black-friday-sale/
Lot's of Squire Paranormal series in the doorbusters. If you've got the Fender Play 10% discount, that'll stack with the sale discounts.
That Sherwood Green JM XII with matching headstock beckons. Dubkitty has been looking at the Paranormal Esquire, too, and the sparkly one is one of the doorbusters.
