We have put together a list of practical, beautiful and eye-catching gifts for music lovers.
Christmas is getting closer and closer and this year we’re doing it better: Instead of putting off hunting for presents forever, we’re getting started on it now. But what do you actually give music fans? Vouchers are boring, collector’s editions of albums are usually too expensive and with new music you never know whether the person receiving the gift might already own it. We have therefore put together several gift tips for music lovers that should not be missing in any home.
Happy Socks: The Beatles
What do you actually give a Beatles fan? To ensure that Christmas is a celebration of surprises for your John Lennon 2.0, “Happy Socks” has a collection of socks for men (but also for women) in Beatles style. Price: about 25 euros.
Punching machine for picks
The wear and tear on guitar picks usually increases with the number of gigs played or the number of children and friends who like to bury a guitarist’s most important tool in the crack of the sofa for fun. A punching machine keeps the plectrum source running dry and ensures that a freshly punched pick is always at hand. You can use plastic cards of all kinds for this: instead of throwing away expired ID cards, credit cards and train cards, they are recycled and become unique musical pieces. Price: around 32 euros.
Headphone stand
It’s a shame if you just leave your headphones, which cost several hundred euros, on your desk or somewhere else. Not only does it look messy, it simply doesn’t do justice to the good headphones and, in the worst case, it even scratches them. You can store your headphones better and more stylishly with the right headphone stand. They come in different shapes, colors and made from different materials, so there should be something for every taste. Here are two of our favorites:
Headphone stand from Satechi made of aluminum
This headphone stand from Satechi looks particularly elegant thanks to its aluminum construction and is also very high quality. The underside of the round base is rubberized, so it doesn’t slip. The top is padded so nothing can happen to your expensive headphones. The height of this headphone stand is 26 centimeters and it is available in four different colors (gold, gray, rose gold, silver). Price: About 42 euros.
Avantree headphone stand made of wood and aluminum
This bamboo-look headphone stand has a sturdy aluminum arm and a special highlight: the stand is also a small bowl for storing headphone cables. The top is not padded, but it is rounded, polished and made of soft wood, so you don’t have to worry about your headphones. Plus: Due to its height of 30.5 cm, this headphone stand is also suitable for particularly large headphone models. Price: Approximately 30 euros.
Wall mount for guitars
If you don’t have much space in your apartment, normal guitar stands are usually unsuitable. Luckily, there are also practical wall mounts that you can easily hang your guitar on. And because you usually have more than just one guitar, wall mounts for guitars are even available in a double pack for around 13 euros.
Robust guitar strap
The gift should be given to an artist who likes to stand with a guitar over his shoulder. A robust belt is essential and ideally you only buy it once in your life. Because then it accompanies you through thick and thin. Price: 14 euros.
Everything together: charger & mood lamp & mini speaker lamp with alarm clock
Here we have a light display, alarm clock and charging and playback function in one. Actually a well-rounded thing. Price: Approximately 35 euros.
Record box
Sure, you can simply put your records on the shelf, but that doesn’t mean they’re particularly protected. It’s better to put them in a box. This plastic box is particularly stable, stackable and, according to the manufacturer, offers space for 50 records. The scope of delivery also includes a connection strip with which several boxes can be connected. Dimensions: 180mm x 325mm x 347mm. Price: Around 28 euros.
Guitar-look cutting board
Even music lovers have to eat sometimes and this guitar-look cutting board should not be missing in any kitchen. Of course, it can not only be used for chopping fruit and vegetables, but can also be used as a breakfast board. Price: From around 20 euros.
Guitar case style lunch box
From the guitar cutting board with the vegetables into the guitar case. You think that’s gross? Wrong thinking, because we’re not talking about just any guitar case, but about a lunch box in the shape of a guitar case. By the way, the original lunch box can of course also be modified a little and used, for example, to store new guitar strings or self-cut guitar picks. Price: Just under 22 euros.
Retro cassette with hidden USB stick
The music cassette is dead, long live the USB stick. Instead of sending a link to the newly created Spotify playlist via WhatsApp, this year’s Christmas present can be presented a little more beautifully: with this USB stick, which is installed in a retro cassette. Simply load music onto the stick and the mixtape is ready. Price: Just under 19 euros.
Ballpoint pen with a drumstick look
For anyone who often thinks about playing the drums, this ballpoint pen in the shape of a drumstick may be the right companion. And as it should be, two of the handy sticks are included in the set. So nothing really stands in the way of daily drumming sessions in the office. Price: About 7 euros.
Vinyl coasters
These record-look coasters are a must for any music fan in their kitchen.
No matter whether it’s tea, coffee or a wine, cocktail or glass of whiskey on the weekend: you can’t place your cups or glasses on tables more stylishly than with these vinyl coasters. Price: euros.
