12 Unique Gifts for Guitar Players
Looking for a gift for a guitarist? There are ALOT of music-related gifts out there, and most of them really are not worth a second look. But here on GuitarGearFreak.com, we have a short but GREAT list of some unique gifts for your beloved guitar player.
Best Gifts For Guitar Players:
Audiophile CMOY Headphone Amplifier
This headphone amplifier looks
AWESOME. There are many headphone amp designs as well, I believe about 8 or so. All you have to do is plug in your guitar with a guitar cable, plug in your headphones and play.
You could take this literally anywhere as this is the size of a mint box (probably why they chose an Altoids
case design for one of them). The price of these pretty cheap as well, but the wiring looks top notch.
This would be an easily appreciated gift for any guitar player. You can check the other designs on
Amazon here.
Aquarius Fender Amp Large Gen 2 Tin Storage Fun Box
This storage box, or lunchbox, looks just like a Fender amp. Looks pretty detailed as well as if I could just plug right in.
On the back it's even better - it shows the backside of the guitar amp as if the real deal was right in front of you. There's also a Tweed Bassman version of this lunchbox.
It even has the bolt details on the siding along with the GT tubes, and Jensen speakers.
The details state it's meant for storage only, but I would absolutely use this for a lunchbox.
You can check out more info about this on
Amazon here.
The Key Board by DropLight - Guitar Amp Wall Key Holder
This is pretty awesome - This is a wall mounted key holder. It comes with 6 audio plugin keychains.
The seafoam
design really stands out and looks great. There are 6 more designs as well.
This amp keyholder is very detailed, even the red light works. Personally, the seafoam design is the best, but the tweed and other versions look great as well.
To see more info on this and other designs, you can check it out on Amazon here.
DIY 3-String Cigar Box Guitar with Magnetic Pickup
Really cool lookingDo It Yourself Cigar Box Guitar Kit. These guitars sound great - very old blues sound to them. That's probably why
Muddy Waters & Howlin' Wolf would play these.
These are built really nice with chrome corners, soundholes, and tuners. The trim from the cigar box really adds to the overall look.
Also, you can also plug it in and use the pickup with the volume knob. Possibly plug this into an overdrive pedal and go to town.
Cigar Box Guitars look like art. I would be happy to play, but I would also be happy having it out to look at.

Amazon here.
Marshall Compact Fridge
Who wouldn't want a mini-fridge? More specifically, who wouldn't want a half stack mini-fridge?
The front of this fridge looks Just like a Marshall half stack - knobs and all. You could set this up in your practice space and it would fit right in.
To be honest, we always wanted a mini-fridge in our practice space because our drinks would get warm-hot while playing. Wish we thought of this sooner.

Amazon here.
iPhone X Case, CaseYard - Black Guitar
This iPhone X cellphone case made by CaseYard
looks great.
Most of the music-related phone cases look like horribly printed garbage. But I feel they put some time and effort in to get these designs right.
I really like the 2-tone all natural wood
with black contrast.
This case is made of 100% wood as well, and I would assume the cellphone case has a really nice feel too based on the close-ups on the case as well.

Amazon here.
Traveler Ultra-Light Travel Guitar - Natural
This Ultra-Light Traveler guitar is great to carry around anywhere. It weighs in almost 70% lighter than an electric guitar.
The tuning pegs are down in the body of the guitar which eliminates the need for a headstock making the traveling guitar more compact to carry.
The Traveler guitar also has a Traveler Piezo Pickup so you can plug and play into an amp as well.
Overall, a great guitar to pack up and play anywhere rather than dealing with a heavy acoustic guitar and an equally as heavy carrying case.

Kikkerland Bamboo Guitar Cutting Board
I threw this in here because everyone needs a cutting board, so why not have a guitar-shaped cutting board?
The Guitar cutting board is made of bamboo. The bottom of the cutting board has a lip to catch juices and food.
It also has a cutout at the top to easily hang it up.
Not a bad cutting board - looks really durable. Decently priced as well.
Even if you don't end up using it, it would even look great hung up in your kitchen.

Amazon here.
Ambesonne Music Throw Pillow Cushion Cover
This 18" x 18" pillowcase looks pretty neat.
Has a red-white-and-blue guitar design with a desert landscape at the bottom.
Could add this to his/her couch to help decorate their place.
Keep in mind, it's only the pillowcase
so you would have to buy the pillow insert for it, but Amazon has both products.
You can find more info about this product on
Amazon here.
(Looking for the pillow insert? -
here's one also on Amazon)
Pick-a-Palooza DIY Guitar Pick Punch
This item is really awesome. It's essentially a hole punch, but instead of holes, it punches guitar picks.
You can punch guitar picks out of old ID cards, credit cards, gift cards, etc.
With this pack, they even give you a pack of plastic strips to punch guitar picks from.
Need a guitar pick? No problem. Get some old plastic card and there you go. Absolutely fantastic idea.

Amazon here.
Island Dogs 58580 Amped Mug, 24 oz
This is probably more of a showpiece only because the front of this is stickers. However, if you don't mind handwashing with care you can drink from this as well.
The size says 24 oz
- which is a pretty hefty amount of coffee for a mug.
The design looks pretty awesome - very cool looking amplifier that you can drink from.
Whether you want to drink from it or set it somewhere in your place, this would make a great gift.
You can find this on
Amazon here.
Fender Play Stationary Bottle Opener
Everyone needs a bottle opener at some point.
This Fender Bottle Opener
looks very classic. I really like the vintage-style logo on top as well as the faded words underneath.
Just bolt this to the wall in your house, or outside on your back porch and voila! You will never need to look for that bottle opener ever again.
You can check this out on
Amazon here.
