Christmas gift ideas for guitarists (from someone with far better taste than I)
The ever resourceful and Christmas-loving Pilgrim Lee (that’s Mrs I Heart Guitar to you) has trawled the internets on your and my behalf to uncover the most interesting Christmas gifts for the guitarist in your life. Now, I’ll be doing one of these lists myself (which will be a lot geekier, and probably more of a ‘Christmas gift ideas for yourself’ kind of thing), but everything in Pilgrim’s list is bound to make you a lot cooler than anything I’d recommend.
Guitar Vintage Kay – this looks similar in several ways to my first acoustic, especially the headstock shape, the tuners and the ‘Steel Reinforced Neck.’ Cool!

Hi! I'm Peter Hodgson. I write for Gibson.com, Australian Guitar, Australian Musician, Mixdown Magazine (including my instructional column, 'Unleash Your Inner Rock God,' which has been running since 2007), guitarworld.com, Tone Deaf, Beat (including their weekly hard rock/metal column Crunch) and The Brag. And I'm Assistant Social Coordinator with Seymour Duncan.
I've been playing guitar since I was 8 years old, and I've been writing for magazines since I was 18. I've also worked as a guitar teacher (up to 50 students a week), a setup tech, a newspaper editor, and I've also dabbled in radio a little bit. I live in Melbourne, Australia, and my hobbies include drinking way too much coffee, and eating way too much Mexican food.
You can check out my guitar playing at Reverbnation or on YouTube, and feel free to email me at iheartguitarblog@gmail.com
Thanks for the holiday tips. Just gut a cool vintage Neil Young peace and Dove vintage guitar strap from http://www.souldier.us. I'm liking those cables too.
