Lovely Christmas

A Christmas present I want to give my boyfriend who’s in a band

A Vocaloid producer who is also a music writerAraki Jakkan
I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

Good news for those with a bandman boyfriend!

We’ve put together a super niche gift selection article called “Christmas Presents You’ll Want to Give Your Bandman Boyfriend.”

If something catches your eye, be sure to search for it online!

Sorting by a specific time period or by latest news makes it easier to find new products—highly recommended.

Let’s think carefully together about what gifts will make your music-loving boyfriend happy!

Christmas gifts I want to give my musician boyfriend (41–50)

Transcribing by Ear Book

Excited! I found an amazing book on transcribing music by ear.

Transcribing by Ear Book

If he plays instruments like guitar or keyboard, he’s probably eager to sharpen his ability to play songs purely by ear—what we call “transcribing by ear.” Especially if he’s around an intermediate level and usually buys sheet music to learn songs, he’d be thrilled with an ear-training/transcription book to strengthen that skill.

These books come in various formats: some include CDs or DVDs, while others let you download audio from the internet and practice along.

Why not gift him a book that suits his style and support his practice?

I can’t really say it’s affordable, but how about giving your drummer boyfriend an electronic drum kit, since he can’t easily practice at home? Even when you hit it, it’s quiet, so there’s no need to worry about noise.

Let’s have him use it and help him improve!

strap lock

I bought ESP strap locks, so I’ll compare them with the new Schaller strap pins and swap them out.

Many people want to give a gift he can carry with him all the time.

In that case, how about a set of strap locks? Strap locks are devices that secure the strap used to wear a guitar or bass over the shoulder.

Since strap locks are consumable items, he’ll appreciate them even if he already has a set.

They’re small, but each brand and model has a different design, so try to find ones that match your boyfriend’s style.

Maintenance goods

Maintenance goods

For someone who takes good care of their instrument, maintenance goods make a great gift.

There are many tools available at reasonable prices, so putting together a set could be a good idea.

If it’s for a guitar or bass, a cloth for wiping the fingerboard might be best.
