Sweetwater is getting a head start on Black Friday, offering fantastic deals, discounts of up to 70%, and a tempting array of exciting gear up for grabs in their early Black Friday sale. If you're hunting for a new guitar, amplifier, pedal, or that perfect addition to your home studio setup, Sweetwater may just be worth your attention right now.
Naturally, with so many incredible deals to explore, visiting the website is potentially dangerous for your wallet. To save you some valuable time, and hopefully a fair bit of cash, we've gathered some of the most striking deals we could find, including some enormous reductions on gear straight from the top table.
As one of the leading names in American musical instrument retail, Sweetwater's Black Friday sale always lives up to its reputation. But with savings available throughout the site already, this early Black Friday sale could be the perfect moment to treat yourself.
We found some pretty amazing deals to head for first. There are, as you’d expect, discounts on a host of products from the bigger names, with PRS among the best represented, but there are a few offers we liked that might go slightly under the radar. Take the venerable Guild Starfire IV, for example, which is dripping with heritage and credibility, and can be found with at least $500 off its list price of $1,449, depending on the colour option you go for. We’re partial to the classic Cherry Red model, but if you opt for the classy Shoreline Mist variant then the savings are even higher.
Elsewhere, we couldn’t help but notice decent savings on the quirky Fender Acoustasonic Telecaster lineup, with four different colorways each benefiting from $300 off their usual price, coming in now at just $999. These little guitars are a quite odd at first glance, but get beyond that and you’ll find a properly versatile instrument that might just be the missing piece of your guitar arsenal.

Finally, if you’re looking for a top-tier semi-hollowbody, then there are nice savings to be made on selected D’Angelico models. The D’Angelico Excel DC XT oozes class, in its Iced Tea Burst finish, and with a massive $500 off its normal price there’s never been a better time to make your move. We’re also big fans of the D’Angelico Premier Mini, which has had a cool $150 knocked off its regular price, bringing it down to just $749.
Sweetwater’s early Black Friday sale ends on November 16, so you’ll want to take advantage of these offers before time runs out. Of course, the official Black Friday sale will likely begin on November 17, but there’s no guarantee these products will remain reduced so now’s the time to make your move.
We’ll be keeping an eye on Black Friday guitar deals at Sweetwater and beyond throughout November.
