Our story

Welcome to InTuneDeals

InTuneDeals launched in July of 2026 with a single goal: to find incredible money saving deals on musical instruments and gear, and to put every one of them in one place. Instrument sales moved online faster than anyone expected, and genuinely deep discounts now turn up somewhere every single day. The problem was never that the deals did not exist. It was that nobody had time to go looking for them.

So we built a platform that does the looking. Rather than asking musicians to check a dozen retailers by hand, our scanners sweep Guitar Center, Sweetwater, Musician's Friend and Sam Ash every hour, track the price history behind every listing, and flag the moment something is actually marked down. What lands on the front page each day is the sharpest of what we found, typically around a hundred drops, ranked by how deep the discount really is.

The site is 100% free and always will be. There is nothing to sign up for and nothing to log into. Browse today’s deals, dig through every drop we track, or read back through the archive, where each past edition keeps the price it actually ran at. If you would rather the deals came to you, drop alerts arrive daily or weekly, your choice.

Under the hood

How it works

  1. 01

    Scan

    Our scanners sweep every major music retailer we cover on an hourly cycle, recording the current price of each listing alongside every price we have seen it at before.

  2. 02

    Verify

    A struck through list price is not a discount. Every markdown is checked against the price history we hold, so a permanent sale tag or a quietly raised list price never makes the page.

  3. 03

    Publish

    What survives is cut to roughly a hundred drops a day, ranked by how deep the discount actually runs. Every edition is kept in the archive at the price it ran at.

We are independent of every retailer listed, though some outbound links may earn us a commission. Prices are observed automatically and change without notice, so always confirm at the store before you buy.

The bar

Discount floors

A single cutoff cannot describe this catalogue. New instruments are held near list price by their manufacturers, so 20% off a guitar in the current lineup is genuinely unusual. Cables and plugins run 50 to 80% off as a matter of course, and a “sale” that deep on a patch cable is simply the price. So every category carries its own floor, and a listing has to clear the floor for its category before it is published.

Subcategories inherit their parent’s floor unless they set a higher one. These are the headline figures; the tighter ones sit underneath.

Straight answers

Common questions

How often are prices updated?
Every hour. Each listing carries the time it was last confirmed, and separately the time we first found it. The age of the deal and the freshness of the price are different things, and we do not conflate them.
What counts as a deal on InTuneDeals?
A listing has to be genuinely below its list price, and it has to clear the discount floor for its category. Floors differ because discount norms differ: 20% for guitars and keyboards, which manufacturers hold near list price, against 50% for accessories and 60% for software, where deep markdowns are routine and a shallow one tells you nothing.
Is InTuneDeals affiliated with any of the retailers it lists?
Not editorially. InTuneDeals is not owned, operated or endorsed by any retailer we track, and none of them has any say in what we publish. Separately from that: some outbound links may earn us a commission if you buy, which is a different thing from being anyone's mouthpiece.
How does InTuneDeals make money?
Affiliate commission, where a link earns any. Some outbound links may pay us a share of the sale, and the retailer pays it out of their own margin: you pay exactly what you would pay going direct. Nothing here is a paid placement. No retailer can buy a slot, and every listing has already passed the discount floor for its category before commission enters into it.
Does InTuneDeals sell instruments?
No. We hold no stock, take no payment and ship nothing. Every listing links to the retailer that actually sells the item, and the purchase happens there.
What happens to a deal after it ends?
It stays. Ended deals keep their own page and are shown at the price they ran at, never at today's price, so the archive remains an accurate record of what was actually available and when.
Does InTuneDeals cost anything?
No. The site is free, there is nothing to sign up for and nothing to log into. Drop alerts by email are optional.

The Founder

Joe Stanton, founder of InTuneDeals

InTuneDeals was founded by Joe Stanton, who holds a degree in Music and Business along with over 15 years of experience building websites and applications. Joe played music professionally and has studied it for over 20 years. He also worked in the music retail industry and is deeply knowledgeable on all types of gear. As a former musician, Joe knows how important it is to save money on music gear, and how hard musicians work to find a great deal.

“We built InTuneDeals to do the work every musician was already doing alone. Refreshing store pages, comparing prices, wondering whether a sale tag meant anything. It’s the age of information, and with instrument sales moving online so quickly there are incredible deals out there every day. Our job is to catch them, check them, and hand them over.”
