On the acoustic guitar front, we really like this deal on the Martin Special Dreadnought X1AE. Who doesn’t want to see Martin on the headstock of their acoustic? Furthermore, who doesn’t want to see $100 off the bill? $499.99 for a killer Martin guitar? Count us in.

Fancy something a bit smaller than a dreadnought? With $50 off, this Fender FA-135CE electro-acoustic is now under $200! Gone are the days when cheaper beginner guitars felt and sounded cheap. Built to exacting standards, these CNC-manufactured instruments play great right out of the box.
