The budding guitarist on your gift list may need something more than a desire to learn.
Below, we’ve highlighted gear including electric guitars, acoustics and basses that will get them started off right.
Looking for the perfect all-in-one gift? Our beginner guitar packs come with everything you need to start playing. Check out this video of our favorite Fender and Squier packs:
FA-100 ACOUSTIC PACK
Getting started as a guitar player was never easier. Right out of the box, you get a Fender dreadnought acoustic, a clip-on tuner and a padded gig bag. You also get a strap, picks and instructional materials.
FC-100 CLASSICAL PACK
With the FC-100 Classical Pack, everything you need to affordably start playing guitar is included. You get a Fender classical guitar featuring a resonant spruce top with traditional fan bracing and mahogany back and sides. The FC-100 Classical Pack also includes a gig bag for easy transport, an electronic tuner, picks and a spare set of nylon strings.
UKULELE HAU'OLI
“Hau’oli” means “happy” in Hawaiian, and it’s a good description for the sound of this inexpensive but high-quality tenor ukulele. A fun instrument that features a mahogany body and neck, the fuller sound projection of scalloped fan bracing, and the improved sustain of a bone nut and bridge saddle.
We share our favorite ukulele picks for beginners:
CLIP-ON TUNERS
The small format FT-004 Fender Clip-On Tuner is easy to operate even under darkened stage conditions. Built-in vibration sensor for accurate tuning even in noisy areas. The large LCD display with easy-to-read needle shows white when out of tune and bright green when in tune.

Designed to replicate the traditional styling and design of the legendary ’57 Twin-Amp, this portable headphone amp imparts a classic look for at-home practice or play on the go. Capture the vibe of early ’50s tweed amps—from the vintage-style exterior to the brown old-school grille—with the versatility of 9V battery power or an AC adapter.
