This DJ Cat Scratching Pad is a hit with musicians and animal lovers! Kitty gets a fun new toy to scratch, and the music lover in your life gets a fun conversation piece for their home. Unique gifts like this are purrfect for felines and their musician friends.

 

pick punch

The DIY Guitar Pick Punch is a great gift for the guitarist who is constantly running out of picks, and let’s face it, that applies to basically ever guitarist ever. It’s hard to say where lost guitar picks go, but with the help of this handy tool, any flat surface you can punch through can become a new guitar pick.

 

custom sticks

For the drummer on your list, why not consider Custom Engraved Drum Sticks? Each time he or she sits down to play, they will pick up the sticks you thoughtfully customized and think of you. Nicknames, lucky numbers, or even band names are all great ideas to get you started customizing this totally personal, unique gift.

The quirky, fun-spirited ukulele has been quite trendy lately, plus it’s a fairly simple instrument to learn, making this kit a great gift for a very special, creative individual.
