It’s day 2 of Amazon’s Spring Deal Days, and if you’ve been thinking about picking up the guitar or expanding your collection, now’s your chance. Amazon is offering major discounts on entry-level Fender guitars, making it a prime opportunity for newcomers and Fender fans alike to get started or upgrade their setup.
Amazon’s Spring Deal Days brings Black Friday-level savings to the spring season, with deep price cuts on music equipment, as well as the typical home appliances, electronics, and everyday consumables. This round of savings is focused on UK shoppers, but a US version is coming soon, so American musicians should keep an eye out.
Amazon's Spring Deal Days: Save on guitar gear
Amazon's Spring Deal Days sale is now live, and as usual, expect to find decent bargains on accessories like strings, picks, capos, and all the essentials a guitarist needs. In terms of gear like guitars and pedals, Amazon’s sales aren’t always the best, but this sale has surprised us with discounts on Fender, Ibanez, and Boss.
UK-based guitarists can take advantage of some standout offers right now. One highlight is the Fender CD-60S, a perennial favorite among beginner acoustic guitars thanks to its winning mix of affordability, ease of play, and superb build quality.
The CD-60S stands out with its solid spruce top, something rarely seen in this price range, which delivers a richer, warmer sound. It also features a dreadnought body for full, resonant lows and a neck designed with beginners in mind, offering rolled fingerboard edges and low action for comfortable fretting.
Of course, it’s not just acoustics on offer. The Squier Debut Stratocaster, the most budget-friendly Strat in Fender’s lineup, is also 15% off, making it a great pick for those ready to go electric. Bassists aren’t left out either, with the Squier Affinity Precision Bass now available at a 15% discount.
Beyond instruments, there are plenty of deals on accessories, from straps and cables to strings, tuners, gig bags, and even Fender-branded apparel. It’s a convenient chance to stock up on essentials, whether you’re preparing for lessons or your next gig.
Remember, these offers are only available for a limited time, and popular items can sell out quickly. Amazon is updating deals daily, so it’s smart to check back often to catch the latest discounts before the sale wraps up on Monday, 16 March.

First and foremost, I'm a guitar enthusiast – a fanatic, some might say. I'm a firm believer that most of the world's problems can be solved with a Gibson SG and a catastrophically loud amp. Before writing about guitars for a living as a Senior Deals Writer on Guitar Player, I worked in music retail for 7 years, giving advice on guitars, basses, drums, pianos, and PA systems. I also have a passion for live sound; I'm a fully qualified sound engineer with experience working in various venues in Scotland.
