If you’re looking for an early deal ahead of the incoming Black Friday guitar deals, then you should head over to Thomann, where one of the best sales I’ve seen so far has just launched. With discounts reaching up to 69%, some of our top-rated guitars and pedals from the past year have got massive reductions, making it a must-shop ahead of Cyber Weekend.

While there will no doubt be a full Black Friday sale launching at Thomann in the next few weeks, this sneak peek of what’s to come will certainly whet your appetite. I’ve had a look at all 52 items in the early sale to see what’s there, and picked out some of my favorites for you below, including some of my top-rated gear from the past year.

Tone King Imperial Tri-Tube Preamp
Save 20% (£122)
Tone King Imperial Tri-Tube Preamp: was £611 now £489 at Thomann

One of the best preamp pedals I’ve encountered over the past year, the Tone King Imperial Tri-Tube Preamp delivers stupendously good tube amp tones all from the tiny enclosure of a guitar pedal. It’s got three 12AX7 valves, two channels, and a footswitchable reverb and tremolo, making it super versatile, and with £122 off in the sale, well worth picking up if you don’t fancy carrying a heavy amp around with you in the new year.

One of our top-rated looper pedals has a gigantic £212 reduction at the moment, making it the biggest discount I’ve ever seen on the Pigtronix Infinity 3. At just £132 it’s incredible value for money, with some awesome loop effects, MIDI compatibility, and rock-solid build quality making it a great option for live looping.

Strandberg Boden Essential 6
Save 32% (£339)
Strandberg Boden Essential 6: was £1,050 now £711 at Thomann
Read moreRead less

The Strandberg Boden Essential 6 is one of the weirdest, yet most satisfying guitars I’ve played over the last few years. The neck profile takes some getting used to, as does the lack of a headstock, but once it clicked I found myself shredding all over the neck with aplomb. It’s got a gigantic £339 reduction in the sale, making it super value for the guitarist who prioritizes playability over everything.

Epiphone Dave Grohl DG-335
Save 10% (£90)
Epiphone Dave Grohl DG-335: was £875 now £785 at Thomann

Dave Grohl’s signature Epiphone DG-335 made some serious waves when it landed last year, mainly because of its seriously good spec that features USA Gibson Burstbuckers. It’s currently got a cool £100 off at the moment and with its distinctive headstock and unusual F-holes, it’s a must-have for any Foo Fighters fans out there.

ESP LTD EC-01 FT
Save 32% (£331)
ESP LTD EC-01 FT: was £1,025 now £694 at Thomann

If you’re after a guitar that keeps it simple with killer tone, the ESP LTD EC-01 FT is an excellent choice. With a Seymour Duncan Custom 14 humbucker in the bridge position it delivers some seriously aggressive tones. It’s currently got a massive £331 discount in the early Cyberweek sale, and with a distinctive recessed bridge that enhances playability, and a push-pull knob for accessing single coil tones, this is a stunning guitar now at an incredibly low price.
