I do hope this clears the landscape for more independent shops but since the closing of my last true locally owned store earlier this year, I think it’s gonna be a while before someone signs a commitment letter to lease a storefront and order enough inventory to give it a go.
My closest guitar shop is busy. It's a really small place, so right now they have I think at most, two people inside at a time, and there are at times a line outside the door. I don't know how many people are buying, or what they're buying. Shop sells Fender and Gibson mostly, had some Godins for a while. Pretty good for repairs/setups.
