When it comes to recording, the MacBook Pro is a studio staple. Whether you're laying down riffs at home, or tracking a full band demo, for many years now the Apple laptop has been the go-to machine. If you've been keeping one eye on the Prime Day guitar deals, but the other on the latest MacBook Pro deals, then these Prime Day offers should be right up your street.

Amazon has been dishing out great deals all day, but these are some of the best yet if you're ready to make a serious investment in your guitar recording.

Both the new 13- and 16-inch models are available with juicy discounts, but for us the highlight has to be the $300 discount currently applied to the 16-inch model (opens in new tab), complete with 16GB RAM, a 512 SSD and 2.6GHz Intel Core i7 processor. This laptop also features a lush Retina screen that will be easy on the eye during long sessions, plus Touch ID for added security if you plan on taking your machine on the go.

This all adds up to one serious music-making laptop that will go this distance, whatever you're laying down.
