Gifts for an Accordion Player
The art of gift giving can be challenging, especially when you are shopping for someone with more specific, or even quirky, tastes. While selecting the perfect gift for an accordion player may seem like a difficult task, with a trip to a music store you can find a variety of accessories that will please even the pickiest accordion player.

Accordion Cases
-
A new bag or case is a practical yet exciting gift to give to an accordion player. Soft carrying bags, such as ones produced by Roland, provide a stylish way for accordionists to carry their beloved instrument. These bags come in different colors, too, for instrument owners who want something a little different. For instrument owners who want a more durable case, giving them a black Hohner carrying case provides them with a sleek and strong way to carry their accordion.
Straps
-
Add a bit of color to your favorite accordionist's get up by giving them a new strap. Accordion straps are a gift that, while necessary and practical, are also special and boosts what can be a dull item. Straps come in a variety of colors and textiles, from bright red poly web to yellow leather, so you can pick something that fits the accordion player's personality and preferences.

Song Books
-
Give the gift of music by buying the accordion player in your life an accordion song book. For the new accordion player, several books contain scales, practice techniques, accordion lessons and other tips. Some books feature helpful pictures and diagrams to aid in the learning process. For those who are comfortable in their accordion playing abilities, you can find books in a variety of music styles, from latin music to popular tunes. Many song books come with a compact disc, enabling players to hear the song and be accompanied by other instruments.
Music Stands
-
If you know an accordion player who is tired of their boring black music stand, you should consider getting them a new, more unique one. Music stands are sold in a wide range of colors, including teal, red, green and violet. Other stands have a special spot that attaches to a microphone. With a microphone spot, the accordion player has fewer stands to worry about and can focus more on her performance.
