5 Gifts Guitar Players Actually Want To Get

Some hobbies aren’t easy to gift for. While just about anyone into fishing or composting will probably always be happy to open up a can of worms, it can be difficult to find something really special for a Michelin star chef - certain interests make people really picky about the particulars! Music happens to be one of them, and guitarists can be especially loyal to one specific kind of guitar pick or string manufacturer. Luckily for you, we’ve put together this list of 5 can’t-miss gifts for the guitarist in your life!

Leather Guitar Picks

Some songs call for a guitar pick, and others call for finger picking, but it doesn’t have to be one or the other. Leather guitar picks offer the technical precision and strumming power of a pick while filling each note with that distinctive finger pick warmth, and they feel great between your fingers too!


Zoom G3n

If the guitarist you know likes their sound electric and amplified, they’re guaranteed to get hours of good use out of this one. The Zoom G3n is a compact multi-effects processor capable of a staggering range of tonal modulation. It’s virtually everything an electric guitarist needs to shape the sound they want, making it a great gift for beginning and advanced players alike.


Bigsby Gamechanger

Some won’t admit it, but deep down, every guitarist wishes their instrument had a whammy bar. Vibrato hardware opens up a whole new world of expression, but often prevents guitars from holding notes as long or as clearly as those without it installed. Bigsby has drawn on its extensive experience crafting premium guitars to produce the Gamechanger, a mind-blowing foot pedal that digitally replicates the effect of a whammy bar at a level of quality that needs to be heard to be believed.


StroboStomp Tuner

The guitarist in your life probably already has a digital tuner, but it probably isn’t a StroboStomp. The StroboStomp is a studio-grade floor pedal tuner with a high-resolution multicolor LED screen and elite tuning accuracy down to a tenth of a cent, or one thousandth of a full musical note. The intuitive radial display is easy to read and adjustable for high visibility in all lighting conditions. It’s the last tuner they’ll ever need. Be the one to get it for them!


Sweetwater Gift Card

While you can find a lot of guitar-related gear at your local Guitar Center, Sweetwater’s online catalog is even more expansive, and their top-notch customer service and quality assurance makes them a go-to source for buying guitars and accessories. A gift card shows your favorite guitar player that you know where they can find exactly what they really want even if you don’t know what it is. Take care of their next string refill, or make that big purchase they’ve been thinking about a little lighter on their wallet.
