Social Critic criticism Electric corporate guitar sellers worry about future

Lionel Wagner
   Gibson and fender are two guitar manufactures worried about the existence of the electric guitar industry in America as more and more people find time needed to learn this music not ever available. The two guitar companies along with the one big box retail giant Guitar Center exist on debt, owing creditors so much fucking money they would have to suddenly transition record low sales of a million guitars sold a year into four million for these companies ever to get back to a balanced budget and pays back all of their bills. private ventures have long survived living on not ever paying back bills. The sixties and seventies saw a bunch of musicians who survived on the street without a real job and perhaps the problem with lack of guitar heroes and stars today is that street bums are too lazy and not working hard to be excellent street musicians. The lack of talented guitarists is because there are so few people to inspire others as many youth move into the untalented rap poetry mode of music as well as electronica. The really death knell of this industry is a few year ago as acoustic guitars once again started to outsell electronic guitars  and industry insiders knew what this identified the core problem of the music industry. Like much of technology put forth in a product it is mostly an excuse to keep prices over-stretched for the vast majority of the public.

Guitar Center is some 1.6 million in debt and refuses to announce their sales and revenues as it is going way down and only a hard core of executives and music industry holdouts push to have this company's unnecessary existence going to this day. Guitar center is a desperate sad place often going there and seeing just people rip their own chords and the environment of ten to fifteen losers playing their bad guitar riffs out loud is not really a retail environment many wish to go as these bald Billy Corgan wannabes wish to believe they are hip to this day because they pay this bad instrument. The guitar has seen its heyday and its return on the cultural scene is doubtful and the over-priced item and the  ologopolistic companies have no one to blame for themselves for the demise of the electronic guitar on the scene.
