Black Friday guitar deals 2025: deals have started landing early – plus all the info you need ahead of the year's biggest guitar sale

The NF3 is a full-sounding Stratocaster-type guitar but, in true PRS style, it also has huge stylistic potential, with remarkable build quality to boot. It features a poplar body bolted to a slab-sawn maple neck with PRS’s Wide Thin profile on a 25-inch scale-length, with a trio of the company's own Narrowfield DD ‘S’ humbuckers to provide a wide tonal palette.

Practice amps have come a long way and with the Positive Grid Spark Neo, you get 43 of them piped straight into your ears, making it a must-have for silent practice. Here's what we had to say about in our review:

"It’s the immediacy and cohesive nature of the Spark Neo that really captured my attention. I have access to multiple Spark products, as well as many of the others mentioned above, and I found myself coming back to the Neo over all of them."

With a cool $50 off in the Sweetwater sale, these cans are an absolute bargain as well as a boon for your guitar playing.

This mini Stratocaster is a great buy for the new guitar player, or just someone who wants a good quality travel electric. The small scale makes it ideal for younger children, adults with smaller hands, or anyone who prefers the compact feel of a short-scale guitar. With a sweet $30 off the price at Musician's Friend, it's a great buy for beginner guitar players.

If you want an acoustic guitar that's going to stand out from the crowd, the good looks of the Epiphone Dove Studio are sure to turn some heads at your next show. Similar to the Hummingbird in its visual flair, it's got a solid spruce top which means it sounds the part too.

With everybody raving about the new Oasis guitars, this Epiphone Les Paul Custom P-90 caught my eye over at Guitar Center. It's got a hefty $150 discount, and the black and gold aesthetic with dual P-90 pickups gives it a look not too dissimilar to Noel's new guitar, for much less money.

I've had a HX Stomp on my pedalboard for the past couple of years now, and it's become the hub for all my delay, reverb, and modulation sounds. Instead of having three separate pedals it handles a multitude of duties sitting in the FX loop of my amp. I also use it for amp modeling in conjunction with third-party IRs, where it's perfect for recording guitar demos. This limited mint green edition has eye-catching looks to add to the equation, and with $100 off at Guitar Center I can highly recommend picking one up.

With 50% off these two Fender 351 Guitar Hangers you're essentially getting one completely free of charge, which makes it an absolute steal for the Fender fans out there.

If you're into your shoegaze tones, this Catalinbread Soft Focus Ghost is a great buy with 15% off at Sweetwater. It combines their Soft Focus reverb pedal based on the Yamaha FX500 patch of the same name and adds in a phase shifter, which results in some incredible, otherworldly guitar tones. It's really easy to use and as well as the classic Slowdive sounds it has plenty of tones that go beyond ambient.

If you're looking for a small tube amp this Black Friday, we'd go for the Supro Delta King 12. Not only does it look incredible, but it takes pedals brilliantly. It's got a great clean sound but if you crank the volume it'll break up beautifully. With a tasty $54 discount in the Sweetwater sale, it's a great opportunity to pick up a tube amp for a lot less.
