Missed out on a Cyber Weekend deal? You can still save big on a whole host of brilliant guitar gear
Well, Black Friday and Cyber Monday are officially over for another year. There has been some truly epic discounting this year - with some ridiculous offers on everything from acoustic and electric guitars, amplifiers, stompboxes and so much more.
If you missed out on that killer new addition to your guitar collection, that amp you always wanted or a new bit of studio software, there's no need to worry - there are plenty of deals still available to take advantage of. In fact, a few retailers, such as Sweetwater, have even extended their sales into a full 'Cyber Week'.
We've rounded up what we think are the very best deals that are still available today, and if you still haven't found what you're looking for, there are even more live deals to check out on our Cyber Monday guitar deals page.
It's worth keeping in mind that some of our very favorite Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals sold out completely, so if you see something on this list that takes your fancy, we'd recommend you jump on it immediately. These deals aren't going to be around forever!

Gretsch G5427TG Electromatic is a great option for that iconic sound on a budget. Boasting a set of vintage-voiced Gretsch FT-5E Filter'Tron humbucking pickups and Bigsby B60, this guitar nails that classic Gretsch twang and then some.

The model brought something genuinely new to the S-style table, with its unique Narrowfield hum-canceling pickups and 25” scale-length – and was described as coming “dangerously close” to the firm’s hallowed US builds. Use the saving to make some minor mods and you’ll have a serious player on your hands...

With everybody raving about the new Oasis guitars, this Epiphone Les Paul Custom P-90 caught my eye over at Guitar Center. It's got a hefty $150 discount, and the black and gold aesthetic with dual P-90 pickups gives it a look not too dissimilar to Noel's new guitar, for much less money.

Full-sized wah pedals are SO last century. Mini wahs are where it’s at right now – maximizing pedalboard real estate while still getting the same tone. And they don’t come much better than Dunlop’s venerable Cry Baby Mini. Boasting the Fasel inductor you’ll find in the full-fat version, plus three adjustable voicings – Low, Vintage and GCB95 – this is all the wah most players will need. And it’s now under $100!

I've had a HX Stomp on my pedalboard for the past couple of years now, and it's become the hub for all my delay, reverb, and modulation sounds. Instead of having three separate pedals it handles a multitude of duties sitting in the FX loop of my amp. I also use it for amp modeling in conjunction with third-party IRs, where it's perfect for recording guitar demos. This limited mint green edition has eye-catching looks to add to the equation, and with $100 off at Guitar Center I can highly recommend picking one up.

The 110ce is a dreadnought acoustic-electric with a solid Sitka spruce top and layered sapele back and sides. Our review praised its excellent fit and finish and its naturally balanced tonality throughout, delivering serious performance well below $1K. It also packs Taylor’s Expression System 2 pickup. For our money, this is the best pound-for-pound acoustic in the price bracket. Read our full 4.5 star review.

How often do you see a discount on Fender’s perennially popular Player II range? Hardly ever. But for Black Friday, Guitar Center is clearing out this limited-edition British Racing Green beauty with $140 off. Player Series Alnico 5 single coils deliver that cutting Jazz tone, while a satin-finished neck with rolled fingerboard edges makes for a comfortable, ahem, player. Did we mention that finish? This deal won’t hang around long.

The Music Man StingRay is one of the all-time great bass sounds, and this budget version adds some neat upgrades. The three-band active preamp gives you control over the bass, midrange and treble coming out of the two Alnico humbuckers, and there’s a five-way pickup selector. If there’s a tone you can’t get out of this baby, it ain’t worth having. And mmm, roasted maple neck. $200 off.

This Yamaha TRBX304 is a great shout for beginner bassists who want a great playing bass guitar with outstanding build quality.

JHS 3 Series pedals: Was $99 now $74.25 each
Even at $99, the JHS 3 Series pedals are a bargain. The comprehensive lineup covers quite literally all tonal bases – overdrive, distortion, chorus, fuzz, delay, screamer, reverb and tremolo included – and each unit is so easy to use it practically operates itself: just three control knobs and mode-switching toggles. Plus, they’re built by JHS, so you know you’re investing in a top quality pedal. They are now a generous 25% off at Guitar Center.

The Boss DS-1 Distortion is an absolute classic of the genre. Stomped by everyone from Kurt Cobain to Joe Satriani, its affordability and rampant gain have made it one of the most popular guitar pedals of all time. Perhaps that’s why I’ve owned two in my lifetime, after regretting selling the first – but, incredibly, I’m now considering buying another.

One of our favorite Tube Screamer clones, the Plumes is an absolute bargain at this price. As you’d expect from a good TS clone, it’s perfect for pairing with a mid-scooped amp and stacks nicely with other drives, too. Its versatile tones will fit into any guitar rig – and with $20 off this dashing Cherry Bomb, there’s no excuse not to find out why this is a modern overdrive classic.

I’m gonna let you in on a secret: the FOD Drive is just a rebadged Dookie Drive – ya know, the pedal that captures Billie Joe Armstrong’s sought-after modded Marshall Plexi crunch from the Green Day album of the same name. Which makes this $99 deal an absolute bargain. A blend knob goes between two different amp characters, allowing you to fine-tune your gain, while a three-way scoop switch gets those mids dialed in juuuust right. Get it! Now!

The JHS Hard Drive has been reduced by $50 during this Sweetwater sale and is perfect for children of the ’90s. From Dimebag Darrell scooped-mids tight riffs to classic Green Day and early Foo Fighters Marshall tones, the Hard Drive (available in either black or tan) is an in-your-face, punchy distortion pedal. This is one of JHS’s first completely unique circuits, and picking it up for $50 less than usual is incredibly tempting. Read our full 4.5-star review.

Sometimes all I want is a pedal that does its job in the simplest way possible, and the Tidewater Mini does just that. With $34 off at Sweetwater, this mini pedal nails the tremolo tone of classic vintage Fender amplifiers. You know the one – that sweet, musical tremolo that makes everything sound just a little better without taking up much space in the mix. If you don’t know it yet, be warned: play it once and you’ll be hooked for life (take my word for it). There’s a reason why this one features in our guide to the best tremolo pedals.

The A58 is the followup to Xvive’s best-selling U2 wireless system and improves it in every way. Its name comes from the 5.8GHz frequency range it operates in, which reduces interference. You get a 70-foot operating range, five hours of battery life, active/passive modes and even an included hardshell carry case. But all you really need to know is that it’s one of the best compact wireless systems on the market and you can rely on it gig after gig.
