It’s the most wonderful time of the year. If you’re searching for gifts for the guitarist in your life, look no further! We’ve compiled a list of great gift suggestions that they will love to open on Christmas Day.
Ibanez TS9
The Ibanez TS9 is a classic overdrive pedal, and for good reasons. For the electric guitar player, there is no distortion pedal so well-known and widely-loved. Guitar Hero called it the best there is. So, if you’re shopping for an electric guitar player who doesn’t already have the Tube Screamer on their pedalboard, this is a must-get.
Audio Technica ATH-M50xBT Wireless Over-Ear Headphones
The closed-back Audio Technica ATH-M50xBT is one of the most popular studio headphones on the market. They’re comfortable to wear and offer noise-isolation features. With Bluetooth connectivity, it’s easy to take them on the go (although they come with an audio cable for wired connection, too!). These headphones are the best on the market for guitar amps, delivering crystal-clear audio and rich bass.
TC Electronic PolyTune 2 Mini Guitar Pedal
The PolyTune line from TC Electronics provides the best polyphonic guitar tuners. The 2 Mini provides ultra-accurate tuning (/- 0.1 cent) to ensure electric guitarists always sound their best. TC Electronics is continuously making these models more convenient for guitarists. This pedal leaves an ultra-small footprint, ensuring that it can fit on the guitarist’s pedalboards. So, if you want to give the gift of a great tuner, consider the 2 Mini from TC Electronics.
TC Electronic Ditto Looper Guitar Effects Pedal
The TC Electronic Ditto Looper is easily the most popular looper and boasts high ratings. With a straight-forward and simple design, with a single footswitch and knob, the Ditto Looper is a humble but powerful pedal. All of the essentials are there and can be controlled from the footswitch, including record, undo/redo, stop, and erase. The sound quality is a significant feature that makes this pedal popular, producing loops in 24-bit uncompressed high-quality audio. If your electric guitarist doesn’t already have a looper, this one is a no-brainer.
Orange Micro Dark Guitar Amp
The Orange Terror series provides a high-gain tube tone in a small size. This amp is deceptively loud, and you will be hard-pressed to find something better for the price. If the guitarist in your life needs a high-gain head amplifier that’s portable and convenient, look no further than the Orange Micro Dark.
Marshall MS2 Micro Amp
A tiny amp with Marshall style and quality, the Marshall Ms2 Micro Amp packs a punch. Battery-operated and one watt, this mighty amp has switchable Clean and Overdrive channels. This amp is ultra fun and portable for any guitarist. It also comes in black, red, or classic for stylish options.
