Death in terms of new big name professional bands.
Life in terms of stimulus checks and locked down unemployed hobbyists.

Brian Wampler said on his podcast that he’s had venture capitalists call him and his peers to get a piece of the musical instrument market. Odd times we live in.Comment

Dude, you consistently have a dark outlook on life and the world in general.Death in terms of new big name professional bands.
Life in terms of stimulus checks and locked down unemployed hobbyists.
Surprised you haven't just decided to live in the woods by yourself writing a manifesto.

Well, chances are that he is not wrong. We all want the guitar to prosper, but colour me surprised if we see any broader results of this.Originally posted by ICTGoober View PostComment

Digital technology has given people access to sounds and recording that were previously unavailable. That opens up possibilities for talent that big studios weren't interested in because they didn't find them commercially viable.
So, maybe no new big name acts, but I don't necessarily think that's a bad thing.

This is only a guess, not factual, but I wonder if that might be because people are still buying warehouse back-stock, while employees are layed off, which would dramatically decrease overhead.Originally posted by Mincer View Post

Another thing... the earth population has grown so a flatline guitar sales means that fewer people are playing, relative to before. A bump because of the pandemic doesn't mean much.
I think this means that guitar will never die, it has just become more niche.

I am absolutely not saying that this translates to more $$ for all people in the industry.Administrator of the SDUGFComment

What's the average number of guitars that a person owns today vs in the 70s or 80s (probably peak guitar specific music period).
Just 'cause we're all buying more guitars doesn't mean we can play them for ****! :PJoin me in the fight against muscular atrophy!
