Guitar Center Spring Sale: Get 20% off guitar gear

Guitar Center Spring Sale: Get 20% off guitar gear
Guitar Center's highly anticipated Guitar-A-Thon is currently underway, offering significant discounts on a wide selection of electric and bass guitars, guitar pedals, and accessories. With the sale ending on May 3rd, you’ll need to act fast if you want to take advantage of these great deals on some quality guitar gear. 

The Guitar Center spring sale only went live earlier this morning, but we’ve already seen some head-turning deals, including a massive $220 off this Fender Player Precision Bass, taking it well below a grand. Featuring the classic split coil pickup design this bass delivers that signature P-Bass growl and the all-black design looks incredible.

If you thought that was a big price cut, how about $500 off this Gibson Les Paul Traditional Pro V? Available in a range of beautiful satin finishes this guitar has the DNA of a classic Les Paul, with some more modern appointments like weight relief, asymmetrical neck profile, and compound radius fretboard.

If a Gibson is a little out of your price range, fear not because there are loads of great deals on lower-cost guitars too. This Squier Classic Vibe Tele Thinline is an absolute stunner, and even more tantalizing with a cool $70 off the regular cost. The limited edition finish matches sonic blue with a gold anodized scratchplate, whilst the classic three-saddle Tele bridge lineup delivers that signature ‘twang’ by the bucketload.

There’s also a limited selection of discounts available including 10% off MXR guitar pedals, as well as discounts on REVV guitar amplifiers, and some ever-handy savings on guitar accessories too, so plenty of reasons to have a browse - even if you’re not looking to add to your guitar collection.
