5.) Candles - Okay. I know what you're thinking, but hear me out. Imagine creating a guitar practice routine that is a total vibe.
For me that's having a hot cozy drink and lighting a candle to set the mood for picking up my guitar.
My personal favorite recently has been Coast + Salt's "Java" candle. It's a blend of coffee and coconut - two of my favorite scents and it smells just like a coffee shop, which is mood I'm usually going for!
This is actually a local beachy brand I love that creates hand-poured clean-burning candles!

6.) Elixir strings - treat your guitarist to some premium coated strings!
My husband and I don't use anything other than Elixir for all of our guitars. They feel so perfectly smooth and play amazingly!
Our favorite recommendation is the 80/20 Bronze HD Light 13 - 53 gauge. It gives a very bright, full, and focused tone. And with the coating, these strings last far longer that uncoated strings. Makes a perfect stocking stuffer!
7.) Sweetwater Gift Card - not sure what to gift them? A giftcard is perfect!
Give the gift of music with a Sweetwater Giftcard! Sweetwater is America's largest music store and offers 2 day shipping. They have everything a musician could ever desire.
8.) Guitar Picks - because every guitarist needs more picks.
We just launched guitar picks in the store, but if you purchase one of our capos, it comes with all 3 picks!
9.) Beginner Guitar Bundle - the perfect lesson set for the newbie guitarist.
My beginner guitar bundle is a combo of both of my courses:
Don't Fret. Everything's O'capo Beginner Guitar Course
Barre Chord Breakthrough
It's the perfect place to start for a beginner guitarist from Day 1 to barre chords and right now it's 50% off!
