ACCESSORY GUIDE

Accessories: What You Need To Know

The right accessories can make playing, setup, maintenance, and everyday use easier. From picks and straps to tuners and instrument care, choosing the right gear depends on your instrument, playing style, and how you use it.

01 PICKS

Choosing The Right Guitar Pick

Pick material, shape, and thickness can affect feel, attack, control, and flexibility. Thinner picks generally flex more, while thicker picks provide a firmer feel and greater control for players who prefer less movement at the tip.

02 STRAPS

Choosing A Guitar Or Bass Strap

A good strap should securely support your instrument and feel comfortable while you play. Consider strap width, adjustability, instrument weight, and your preferred playing height when choosing a strap.

03 INSTRUMENT CARE

Keeping Your Instrument Clean

Regular cleaning can help remove sweat, oils, fingerprints, and buildup from your instrument. Use products intended for musical instruments and follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for your instrument’s finish and materials.

04 TUNING & SETUP

Essential Gear For Everyday Playing

A reliable tuner, picks, strap, and basic instrument-care products can cover many of the everyday needs players encounter at home, rehearsal, in the studio, or on stage.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Quick answers to common questions about picks, straps, tuners, instrument care, and other S.I.T. accessories.

What guitar pick thickness should I use?

Pick thickness is largely a matter of feel and playing style. Thinner picks flex more and are often comfortable for strumming, while thicker picks provide a firmer feel that many players prefer for picking, lead playing, and greater control. Trying a few thicknesses is the best way to find what feels right.

Can I use the same strap for guitar and bass?

Yes. Many straps can be used with either guitar or bass as long as they fit the instrument’s strap buttons and provide the comfort and adjustability you need. Players using heavier instruments may prefer a wider strap to distribute the weight more comfortably.

How do I choose the right guitar strap length?

Choose a strap that adjusts comfortably to your preferred playing position. The correct length depends on your height, instrument, and whether you like to wear the instrument higher or lower while standing.

How often should I clean my guitar or bass?

There is no fixed schedule, but wiping down your instrument after playing can help reduce sweat, oils, and buildup. A more thorough cleaning can be done as needed, often when changing strings. Always use products that are appropriate for your instrument’s finish.

Do I need a tuner if I already use a tuning app?

A tuning app can work well in many situations, but a dedicated tuner can be more convenient in noisy rooms, rehearsals, and live environments. Which option is best depends on where and how you play.

What accessories should every guitarist or bassist have?

A practical basic setup usually includes picks if you use them, a comfortable strap for standing, a tuner, spare strings, and basic instrument-care supplies. Your specific needs may vary depending on your instrument and playing situation.
