Xmas Present Suggestions
Seriously .... Does anyone have an idea of what to get a guitarist / multi instrumentalist musician that has everything for Xmas?

One year someone gave me a gift card to the GC String Club. You get a set of strings every month.
I found it to be a very practical gift. I found those battery powered string winders also to be a very useful gift. http://www.musiciansfriend.com/accessories/ernie-ball-powerpeg-battery-powered-string-winder?cntry=us&source=3WWRWXGP&gclid=CNyL96v59c8C FYxZhgodhfcKkg&kwid=productads-adid^92666429307-device^c-plaid^145409780682-sku^369946000000000@ADL4MF-adType^PLA Good luck!!!

My kids love to buy Christmas and birthday presents. What I always tell them is this:
I love the sentiment and, of course, enjoy receiving a gift but my children are children and I'm a grown-up with a job. Anything they buy me is appreciated because they specifically thought of me. More importantly, they do have a currency that I can't compete with - their time. Their time on this Earth is invaluable. I value their time more than material so, whenever possible, I ask them to give me a gift of their time instead of things. That's a gift they can afford and one I value much more. This past birthday they all agreed and we made pacts to do family activities: we went to a favorite museum of mine, a football game together, a concert, etc. So...... If it is truly someone who has everything, think about giving them time or experiences. Take them to a music museum or a concert or an event. For example, if they are near PA, plan a trip to Nazareth. If they are in AZ plan a trip to the MIM. Those, IMO, are wonderful gifts.

How about the Precision : Crystal guitarist's nail file. The quality and surface are unique - I developed it as a single tool to shape and finish nails to perfection for fingerstyle guitar tone (there is also a Pro version developed specifically for players with artificial nails). But it is actually a perfect nail file for absolutely anyone.
Check out the details on my site Wolfram Slides. There are also several threads of reviews here on AGF: http://www.acousticguitarforum.com/f...d.php?t=378789 http://acousticguitarforum.com/forum...d.php?t=432646 http://www.acousticguitarforum.com/f...d.php?t=415472 Cheers, David

A subscription to the Fretboard Journal. In my opinion, the finest guitar-related periodical available...

Perhaps a necktie. Or an airplane. One or the other.

A gift card to Sweetwater, Guitar Center, or other seller will always be appreciated and used. Something else may end up as a dust collector.
