I need help finding a magic item that gives you a bonus to perform. I've looked through the core rulebook and many others, but can't find one.
Did they leave items with bonuses to perform out of the books intentionally? I would like some help to get my bard better at what he does.
My DM usually only allows items in print, so even if you can make items, it has to be a duplicate of whats already in the book.
I know that there are Masterwork Items to give you a +2, but what about singing? Anyway any help would be most appreciated.
I'm playing a bard in a low/no magic items game, so I'd actually like to know if a masterwork item for singing is possible and what it could be, too.
Don't know of a magic item to boost perform, but not all skills have a magic item in core. There are rules to make them using the table guidelines if your DM allows it; I don't think such an item was left out "intentionally."
Have you seen the circlet of persuasion, though? That'll boost all cha-based skills and checks (including concentration checks!) by 3.
Circlet of persuasion: grants a +3 competence bonus on the wearer's Charisma-based checks. Costs 4,500 gp.
Circlet of persuasion: grants a +3 competence bonus on the wearer's Charisma-based checks. Costs 4,500 gp.
That's an option. I do have a headband of charisma on however, and that gives me more bonuses overall than the circlet, and they both take the same item slot.
Actually in PF, they don't.

Many magic items need to be donned by a character who wants to employ them or benefit from their abilities. It's possible for a creature with a humanoid-shaped body to wear as many as 15 magic items at the same time. However, each of those items must be worn on (or over) a particular part of the body, known as a “slot.”
A humanoid-shaped body can be decked out in magic gear consisting of one item from each of the following groups, keyed to which slot on the body the item is worn.
Armor: suits of armor.
Belts: belts and girdles.
Body: robes and vestments.
Chest: mantles, shirts, and vests.
Eyes: eyes, glasses, and goggles.
Feet: boots, shoes, and slippers.
Hands: gauntlets and gloves.
Head: circlets, crowns, hats, helms, and masks.
Headband: headbands and phylacteries.
Neck: amulets, brooches, medallions, necklaces, periapts, and scarabs.
Ring (up to two): rings.
Shield: shields.
Shoulders: capes and cloaks.
Wrist: bracelets and bracers.
Actually in PF, they don't.

Nice! that's very helpful thanks. I was hoping for a +5 bonus item or greater though, but that one will do very well if i can't find another. Plus it's a bonus to all performances which is very nice.
