Retailers Launch Pre-Black Friday Sales Events

Reverb has kicked off its 'Beat the Rush' sale, offering discounts of up to 44% on guitars, pedals, and other music gear ahead of Black Friday. Highlights include significant markdowns on both new and used items, such as a Les Paul Modern Lite and replicas of Eddie Van Halen's Frankenstrat. The sale features various brands including Fender, Gibson, and Boss, making it a prime opportunity for musicians to save on essential gear. In contrast, Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days offers notable discounts on turntables, with models like the Audio-Technica AT-LP120XUSB available at 29% off. Guitar Center's annual Guitar-A-Thon also provides substantial savings on popular brands, including Martin and Gretsch, just as the market begins to gear up for the holiday shopping season. Each retailer emphasizes the importance of shopping early to secure the best deals.
