Default Gift ideas for a Guitarist / Home Recording Studio Suggestions

So my boyfriend is a guitarist who also composes.

I am trying to gift him something nice for our first anniversary. I came across these home recording studio kits for around 70-80$ and was wondering if you guys have any suggestions about which ones are good.

Or if you have any other suggestions about better gifts, for around 100$.

He hasn't been playing a lot nowadays, he has a busy work life and maybe that's why. So I was thinking the recording kit would bring him some excitement.

Edit: He has two guitars here (we're in U.S. at present. And I guess a portable amplifier.) I guess that is all he has here.

He plays acoustic and Bass.

I don't have any knowledge about these things and would appreciate all suggestions.


[I hope I am violating any forum rules.]

The important question is what does he already have? We can't tell you to get anything if we don't know what he has to work with.

Well, with a set-up like that there isn't much you can get him that would be bad. Here's a pedal I bought years ago that's right in your range that I absolutely love. Though since he doesn't have any pedals you can go for the G1Xon cause it has the expression pedal but I can't vouch for how good it is because I already had a wah pedal when I bought it so the expression pedal was just extra money that I didn't need to spend.

It’s important to never use pedals until you sign with Geffen

Guitar strings
Strap locks.
A new strap/s.
Guitar picks.
A pack of 9V batteries if he has an electric guitar with active pickups.


All under $100.
Possibly a new guitar case, if you know where to look around or a new, used guitar case. Or even possibly a new guitar cable.
