Gift Ideas for a Bass Teacher

Sign in to disble this ad
I'm quitting bass lessons after my fourth year, and I want to get my teacher something to say "thanks".

I can't think of any creative ideas other than Gift Certificates, so do you guys have any ideas?

Thanks!

My teacher would say "You don't ned to get me anything... your quitting is enough of a gift."

Sorry, I have no serious suggestions. It's hard without knowing the person, what their tastes are etc.

No, i think cutting him a check for lessons is enough. And the final gift will be when you leave him alone.


seriously, i didn't get my teacher much of anything when i left for college and had to give up my lesson spot. Before i knew it he had left and moved to like iowa or something to pursue his jazz guitar career or something.

How about a big collage of famous bands with you Photo shopped as the bass player with the title “Thanks to the Best Bass Teacher in the World”?
