Top 5 Music Gifts
1) Hi-Fidelity Earplugs
Hi-fidelity earplugs let you enjoy loud concerts without sacrificing sound quality. Filters built into the super low-profile plugs dial down volume by about 22 decibels across frequencies, equally from bass to treble. This brings the volume to a softer and safer level, while the sound quality remains crystal clear. You can chat and hear conversations with the earplugs in, too, which makes them a useful addition to any loud situation.
2) Flexible Roll-Up Drum Kit
Rock out to the beat of your own flexible drum. Unroll this portable drum kit to play on the go. Jam to real drum sounds, including pedals for bass and hi-drum. Record and play back your masterpieces or use headphones to practice, then hook up to an external speaker to show off. You can rock and roll up virtually anywhere.
3) Bluetooth Connected Guitar Trainer
The Bluetooth Connected Guitar Trainer by Jamstik is the ultimate go-anywhere guitar instruction tool. Bundled with apps and software that are compatible with both iOS and Chrome OS, it takes the guesswork out of learning to play. See your fingers on-screen in real-time with an easy-to-use system that will have you playing your first guitar chords in minutes. Made in the USA.
