Christmas is a matter of days away and if you're like me it's possible you have your fair share of gifts still to buy. If there's a musician in your life who you currently don't have anything to wrap for, then you should be relieved to learn that Guitar Center's Holiday sale runs until Christmas eve. They currently have a huge range of great gear up for grabs and the biggest discounts around, with up to 35% off.
150 more products have just been added to the sale too. And if you get a kick out of last minute shopping, you can order right up to December 21 and still get your gifts delivered in time for Christmas delivery.
In the sale you’ll find everything from up to 25% off Yamaha gear, including keboards, studio monitors and acoustic guitars, sweet discounts on Positive Grid’s Spark Go, Mini and Spark 40 amps and there’s even big savings to be had on a range of stunning PRS SE guitars, including a whopping $170 off the PRS SE Silver Sky in a range of striking finishes.
The sale has something to please every type of musician too: for bands there’s discounts on live sound equipment, or if you plan on recording more in 2024, there are savings to be made on a range of studio gear, from mics and software to audio interfaces and studio monitors. There's a bumper showing for guitar players too, with everything from guitars to amps, effects and accessories up for grabs.
