There's a raft of early Independence Day celebrations rolling in all over the US, and with them, some big, big sales. Historically, the 4th of July has always been a great opportunity to get discounts on homewares, tech and maybe the odd piece of furniture, but now you can save big on a huge range of guitar gear too. Until July 6, Guitar Center is offering up to 35% off over 800 products as part of its July 4th sales.

It's rare for us to see sales this big outside of the main sales seasons such as Black Friday or Amazon Prime Day, but this sale is offering some serious discounts that you won't want to miss out on. If you want to buy yourself a new electric guitar, acoustic guitar, electronic drum set, snare drum or PA speaker and don't want to wait until Black Friday to do so, now's your chance.

Although this sale is full of total bangers, we've got a few faves of our own we'd love to share. There's $250 off the humbucker-equipped Limited Edition Fender HSS Stratocaster which is now only $799 and has a luscious ebony fingerboard, an epic $200 off the Alesis Crimson II SE 9-piece electronic drum set with mesh heads, which is now only $899, $100 off the Casio CDP-S100 compact digital piano which is now only $349, and a wholesome $66 off the Ludwig Black Magic Black Nickel Brass snare drum - which is a 14"x6.5" beast, and will now only set you back $249.
