Guitar Center coupons problems

Sign in to disble this ad
I have a coupon I got from Guitar Center, and I want to use it to buy an amp online, but I enter the barcode into the promotional section and it says it's invalid. It doesn't appear to have expired, because I see no expiration date. Anyone have any suggestions?

Coupon Code BLACK11 is good for 15% off today. However it is burdened by the usual massive list of exclusions: Coupon and Offer Exclusions | GuitarCenter.com

Fender/Squier has instant rebates in effect through Dec. 31:
Fender & Squier Holiday Rebate

Curiously, the rebates are fixed amounts ($25/50/100) but the Terms and Conditions section has it as 10%. Probably a brain-in-park copy/paste.

If you go into the store and get the right guy they'll sometimes let you use it on excluded brands, but for the most part those coupons are useless for anything except horrible beginner gear.

You have to call them. They will almost always accept the coupon over the phone. The deal is that they are contractually prohibited from advertising deals for those brands, but that doesn't mean they are prohibited from making the deals. Call them on the phone, and get the deal.

It's that simple.
