I don’t think anyone was expecting 4th of July sales to launch so early, but here we are. Over at Guitar Center, you can take advantage of massive savings of up to 45% off guitars, pianos, electronic drum sets, and recording gear.
With it being a payday weekend, it’s an excellent opportunity to pick up your favorite gear for a whole lot less. As you might expect with Guitar Center, there’s a heavy emphasis on guitarists, but there’s still a good selection of deals available on studio monitors, audio interfaces, and software.
As I’m always on the lookout for fresh gear for my own studio, I have to shout at the MXL 770, which is an absolute bargain at just $49.95. For less than $50, you’re getting a great quality condenser mic that excels at vocals and acoustic guitars, but is adaptable enough that with the right placement, you could use it on pretty much anything.
If you’re after an electronic drum set for practicing at home, the Alesis Nitro Pro XL has got a hefty $200 off at the moment, bringing it down to just $699. It’s superb value for a full 10-piece drum kit with mesh heads, and offers plenty of flexibility to match the layout of your regular kit.
I really love the wide bass drum pad, which has plenty of room for a double kick pedal, and the mesh heads are quiet but give you a nice rebound feel.
Finally, if you need to kit out the home studio, whether you play guitar or you’re making beats, the M-Audio Forty Sixty 6-inch studio monitors have got a nice $30 discount on a single monitor.
While that doesn’t sound that much on its own, that adds up to $60 if you buy a pair, giving you a great quality set of monitors for well below the $300 mark, which is excellent value in anyone’s book.
