With the recent spate of sunshine and melting of some fearsome winter snows, it’s time to shake off the slump and get ready to kickstart your creativity for 2026. Over at Thomann, they’ve got just the antidote to the winter blues thanks to some excellent discounts on guitar gear, with reductions hitting up to 60% off guitars, pedals, amps, and loads more.
The sale runs until April 8th, so you’ve got a good amount of time to cash in, particularly those who are waiting for payday to arrive. Bear in mind that although the headline discount is 60%, I’ve seen some deals hitting up to 70% off, so if you want to cash in on the really good deals, you’ll need to act fast.
There are over 600 discounted items available, so there’s plenty to look through. If you haven’t got time for that, I’ve done the hard work for you and picked out 3 of the very best deals you can bag right now.
First up, we’ve got the incredible Gibson Les Paul Standard 50s, which has got a cool £112 off, taking the price below the £2k mark. It’s got all that classic LP DNA with an all mahogany construction, maple top, and dual Burstbucker pickups modeled after the legendary PAF humbucker. It’s got a 50s vintage neck profile, which means a chunkier neck feel like the original guitars would have had when they were first released.
I’m a big fan of Tone King amps, and I was seriously impressed with the Tone King Imperial Tri-Tube preamp, which gives you that sound in a handy pedal format. It’s got three 12AX7 tubes in it, which is why it sounds so good, and it gives you that Tone King sound for three-quarters of the price of one of their actual tube amps. With £80 off in the Thomann sale, it’s even better value for money, and well worth looking at if you want a flexible and connectable pedal amp.
Finally, the enduring Epiphone Dave Grohl DG-335 continues to be an incredibly popular instrument, delivering USA humbuckers and outstanding build quality at a much lower price than you’d expect. It’s currently discounted by £100 in the sale, making it an absolute steal even if you’re not a Foo Fighters fan. It’s very faithful to Dave’s original guitar despite costing a lot less, with a one-piece mahogany neck and elliptical C-shape neck for excellent playability.
