Thank you! Props for supporting local businesses man :D — can you recall the last time you actually buy a piece of gear online? If yes, why did you buy it online instead of your local store?

but I do like the suggestion of getting an alert if something goes on sale.

Me too!

Thank you! Where do you usually find these deals if I may know?

Hey thanks!

So after you save it on your Wishlist, what did you do when you want to actually buy any of the items there?

list of possible band names lol

Anyone who doesn't have this ain't a real musician lmao

You lucky skunk. Congrats on the new gig! Doing User Research, or will you be coding some of these solutions too? Hahaha thanks man! It's awesome to be here. I'm not a programmer so I'm helping Giulio and Michael on other stuff. They're the masterminds :)

I use the Wishlist as a way to remind myself of what I'm on the lookout for, and to prioritize what's on that shopping list. I might see some cool sale and want to bite on it, but I'll check my wishlist to see if that shiny new thing is really more important that the stuff already on my to-buy list. Hard to keep track of it all in my head, this is a way to externalize, organize, and prioritize. I check back on my list at least once a month.

Thanks man! So when you check back on your list, what do you do? If you find "the right" gear, do you purchase via the Equipboard link?

My earlier thoughts: https://equipboard.com/forums/general/topics/black-friday-equipboard

Thanks for this! So you mentioned: "Would anyone else here appreciate alerts on wishlist items that happen to go on sale?" -> I think this is something that I personally would also want to have. Out of curiosity, personally, how would you like to be alerted? Would you want to be alerted only when:

a.) there's a HUGE sale for the item on your wishlist. Basically "Black Friday" huge

or

b.) there's a drop in price on the item e.g. This pedal is $150 but it's now $135, which is not that significant

or would you want an alert for both?

Got it! So let's say you have saved up for a gear you need, do you go back to Equipboard and purchase from that Wishlist?

Hey all, Jovian here! I'm currently helping Michael and Giulio with some stuff and want to understand a bit about the Wishlist on Equipboard.

If you ever saved any gear on the Wishlist, I'd love to learn more about why you do that. What was on your mind when you hit that "Save" button? Did you ever come back to that list?

If you never save anything on the Wishlist: do you know there's a Wishlist?

Would love to learn more!

I just remembered my old bandmate is actually an engineer in Positive Grid! They’re based in Taipei, where I live. I probably can ask him about lending it to you guys. What do you think?

Been considering getting Spark practice amp. Anyone have tried it before? If you don’t have an iPad, would it be a pain in the ass to control?

Nothing much here, I just want to express my love for this absolute beauty of a pedal - What do you guys think about the CC?

Nope, mostly with pick through a Vox Pathfinder set really clean

Ha interesting! What's your long answer on this Jim? :)

Been thinking if I should get a compressor pedal. Some people said it's better to sharpen my playing first instead of relying on compressor pedals to get the tone I want. What do you guys think?
