For those who are about to rock out on the iPad, we salute you, and recommend that you replace your finger drumsticks and guitar picks with Pix & Stix. This set of drumsticks and guitar picks is designed for use with the iPad's GarageBand app.
The guitar picks and drumsticks of Pix & Stix all have electroconductive rubber tips to help them gel with the iPad's touchscreen, and are all weighted realistically so they won't accidentally fly out of your hand during your badass drum solo. Each pack costs around $16 and includes both a set of drumsticks and a guitar pick. While I have never given the GarageBand app a go, these do seem like essential accessories if you want to go from an iPad-playing zero to a jukebox hero.
