Five Star Gift Ideas

For your son who enjoys playing piano and guitar, there are several meaningful and personal gift ideas you can consider to enhance his musical journey. Here are a few suggestions that cater to his interests:

1. Sheet Music or Songbooks: Look for sheet music or songbooks featuring his favorite artists, genres, or iconic pieces for piano or guitar. This will allow him to learn new songs and broaden his repertoire.

2. Musical Equipment and Accessories:
a) Guitar: If he primarily plays guitar, you can consider getting him a new set of high-quality strings, a guitar tuner, a capo, or a guitar stand. Another thoughtful option could be a guitar pedal or effect processor to experiment with different sounds and styles.
b) Piano: If his main focus is on the piano, you could gift him a sustain pedal, a metronome, or a keyboard stand. Consider accessories like a piano bench or sheet music holder, which will enhance his playing experience.

3. Music Lessons or Online Courses: Enrich his musical skills by gifting him music lessons or online courses. Look for a reputable music school or certified online platform that offers lessons in piano or guitar. This gift will provide him with professional guidance and opportunities to grow as a musician.

4. Music Subscription or Membership: Consider gifting him a subscription to a music streaming service like Spotify or Apple Music. This allows him to explore and enjoy a wide variety of music, discover new artists, and have access to a vast library of songs. Alternatively, you can also gift him a membership to a platform like Ultimate Guitar, which offers a comprehensive database of guitar tabs and chords.

5. Personalized Music Accessories: Make his musical experience more personal by getting him custom-made guitar picks with his name on them or a personalized piano keychain. These small but thoughtful gifts will remind him of your support for his musical pursuits.

6. Concert Tickets: Keep an eye out for upcoming concerts or performances by his favorite artists or bands. Surprise him with tickets to one of their shows, giving him the opportunity to witness live music and gain inspiration from skilled musicians.

Remember, the most meaningful gifts are often the ones that reflect the recipient's passions and interests. By choosing a gift that aligns with your son's love for piano and guitar, you are not only encouraging his musical abilities but also showing him that you understand and support his passions.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
