The onslaught of activity that is Amazon’s second-biggest sale of the year is finally upon us with the start of the Big Deal Days sale today. If you’re looking for a deal on an electric guitar, I’d look elsewhere. If you want to stock up on essentials like strings, picks, and other replishables, there are some amazing deals out there for the next two days.

I’ve looked through all the musical instrument deals in the sale, and there are loads of multipacks for electric and acoustic guitar strings right now. A multipack already saves you money versus buying them individually, so with these further discounts, it’s the perfect opportunity to stock up.

With brands like Ernie Ball, D’Addario, Elixir, Martin, and more available in the sale, I’ve rounded up all the multipack deals for you below.
