Zoom MS-70CDR+ MultiStomp: $149.99, $109.99
Over at Guitar Center, the MS-70CDR+ has got a tasty $40 discount, bringing it to just above the $100 mark. The original Zoom MultiStomps earned something a cult following thanks to their versatility. Small, yet packing a shedload of sounds inside the MultiStomp is the perfect 'Swiss army knife' pedal to add a particular tone or utility to your 'board when you don't want to take up too much room or spend too much money.

Schecter Paul Wiley Noir: Was $1,199, now $699
Whatever you might feel about signature guitars, $500 off a guitar is an incredible deal no matter whose name is on the headstock. This Schecter Paul Wiley Noir will probably prove divisive in the looks department, but no one can deny that at this price it's an incredibly good deal.

Pigtronix Gloamer: Was $279, now $199
If you like your pedals wild and unpredictable, the Pigtronix Gloamer should satisfy your need for the weird. It's got a nice $80 discount at Guitar Center, taking it down below the $200 mark. Best paired with other pedals like reverbs and delays, its compressing, volume swelling action can get you some properly out-there tones.

Epiphone Les Paul Traditional Pro IV: $549, $449
What’s better than a Les Paul? A discounted Les Paul. Loaded with Alnico Classic Pro humbuckers with push/pull coil-splitting, this is a surprisingly versatile guitar, while its maple-topped mahogany body nails the classic LP vibe – and right now, you can bag $100 off at Musician’s Friend.

Boss Instrument/Patch bundle: Was $49.99, now $29.99
It might not be as exciting as a new guitar or pedal, but quality guitar cables are a must for any guitarist. Over at the Musician's Friend Rocktober sale, we spotted this Boss Instrument/Patch cable bundle with a nice $20 discount. It features a single instrument cable and two patch cables, making it a great buy for guitarists who need to stock up for less.

PRS SE Standard 24-08: Was $749, now $549
We saw some awesome deals on PRS in last year's Black Friday sale, and this one is available super early this year. With a huge $200 off, the PRS SE Standard 24-08 is a brilliantly put-together guitar that delivers excellent tuning stability and a huge array of sounds thanks to the switching circuit. It punches way above its weight even at full price, so the extra off here makes it a must-buy.

Walrus Audio Voyager: Was $219.99, now $99.99
Billed as preamp/overdrive pedal, the Walrus Audio Voyager has a hefty $120 discount at Sweetwater at the moment. Great for sweetening your base level guitar tone, the Voyager will thicken up and add warmth to your guitar tone on lower settings, before moving to a more overdriven sound when you crank it. It's an ultra transparent pedal, so everything will remain articulate no matter what settings you use it

Guild F-55E: Was $4,499, now $3,499
If you're looking to splurge on an acoustic we can't think of many that are better, or bigger, than the Guild F-55E. It's got a hefty $1,000 discount at Sweetwater, making it an incredible deal on a premium instrument. In our recent Guild F-55E review, we praised it for its loud and well-balanced tone, slim neck with fantastic playing feel, and outstanding build quality.

Yamaha THR30II WL: Was $469.99, now $429.99
One of the Best Guitar Amps Under $1,000 of 2023. If you’ve got a bigger room and want a bit more power, step toward the THR30II. It has exactly the same features as the THRII10 models, but you’ll get a boost in volume and tone from its 30-watt output. It’s still battery-powered, it’s still wireless, just bigger and louder. Amazon is offering the same discount on the regular colour, plus Black and White models.

Fender Aerodyne Strat: $1,329.99, now $799.99
One of the best playing Fender guitars we've played in years, the Fender Aerodyne Special Strat HSS has an unbelievably fast-playing neck and seriously good-sounding pickups to boot. With a $530 discount, this is one of the best Fender Cyber Monday savings we've seen this year.

Gibson Les Paul Trad Pro V: $2,499, now $1,999
The Gibson Les Paul Traditional Pro V is about as versatile as a Les Paul gets, packing coil-splits and out-of-phase switches, and comes in a luxurious Satin Wine Red finish. If you're in the market for a bonafide rock machine, this has to be your next guitar – especially with Guitar Center slashing the price to just $1,999.

Guild Starfire Bass II: was $1,499, now $999
Available with a massive $500 discount – that’s 33% off the original price – this semi-hollow short-scale Starfire Bass has a classic yet characterful profile, and we love that Emerald Green finish. If you’re unfamiliar with the Starfire Bass II, it was beloved by Jefferson Airplane’s Jack Casady and the Grateful Dead’s Phil Lesh. With $500 off the list price, we’re surprised this is still available, frankly.

Fender Player Strat, Fiesta Red: $849.99, $594.99
First up is the drop-dead-gorgeous Player Strat in Fiesta Red. It's no secret that we absolutely love the Player Series and we love them even more when there is 30% off!

Marshall amps & cabs: Up to $550 off
The cornerstone of that 'British' amp sound, Marshall is a name that transcends the guitar itself, with the company's ubiquitous gold and black styling becoming synonymous with guitar amps in the popular sphere.
