Its pretty much the Amazon of the guitar industry.......

Its gotta die or else the industry will die IMO...... Or more parts of the industry will......



Its time to stop buying shit from Sweetwater..... Nvm the slave labor like conditions and a 3rd world America they have made within America to run the business and sustain it in Fort Wayne Indiana...... Its just the last choice I consider when buying gear due to the business itself and their practices.


Me personally just refrain from buying from them and having worked in businesses that work with SweetWater they are simply the fucking worst and anyone from Fender, Gibson, Martin and their main clients will tell you the same.......


But they really have no other option but to suck it up and bend over and get fucked up the ass by them given how big they have gotten.......


IMO vendors/companies should just step away from them and find other alternatives because pretty much everyone and even the top guns like Fender, Gibson or Martin are having the tail wag the dog and it's just the most retarded thing ever...... They simply are one of the most disgusting entities/businesses in America today IMO.


Anyway that's it and well fuck SweetWater :dunno:

Reverb fees have been typically around 7-8% for a while now. I don’t get the hate. You’re getting national and world wide, if you want it, exposure to sell stuff that no one locally is going to buy for what you’re asking anyway.
I’ve sold a lot on Reverb in the last two years that I would have taken a bath on with Guitar Center or just had low ballers and tire kickers off Craigslist, if anyone even reached out at all.
My favorite local store that does consignment gets 17% and you only have the traffic of that one store. So far, Reverb has been good for me when I’m selling.

Right on......


I get but SweetWater ain't Reverb and who the fuck is talking about Reverb..... The thread title is regarding SweetWaters BS and how they managed to create a 3rd world country within America and slave labor in Fort Wayne Indiana.....


So SweetWater could become a monopoly amongst online sales and sales in general in the industry and in the "free market" of the music industry which doesn't even exist in reality thanks to these fucking hicks...... And as said establish a 3rd World Country within Fort Wayne Indiana :yes:



Pretty much the Amazon or worse if that is possible of the music industry.....At the least Reverb supports alternatives vs the POS that SweetWater is..... Its not perfect but Reverb seems to be a better alternative than bowing down to fucking fogey hicks from SweetWater in Fort Wayne Indiana....... NVM the fuckers are destroying the industry.....


Shouldn't the fuckers be farming or whatever the fuck they do out there vs sucking the life out of the music industry from the rest of America and the music industry in general.




Maybe there should be more Reverbs :dunno:
 
Sounds pretty bad. Can I ask, what is it that makes their working conditions “slave labour” or that of a 3rd world country? To be clear, I have no skin in the game here, just interested to know a bit more detail.
 
Yup.....


Nvm actual numbers of Fort Wayne Indianas hourly wage vs the National minimum wage...... No fucking wonder SweetWater is able to operate a 3rd World Country within America because relative to the rest of America it's actually below a 3rd World Country...... Outside of farming or whatever the fuck else they do there.....


Fuckers in Indiana make pretty much half as the national average with them barely meeting the Federal Minimum Wage...... Just as I fucking thought.



Nvm all these illegal fuckers they hire at SweetWater I imagine and wouldnt be surprised if they do to squeeze out more juice out of the American Music Industry that they suck the life out of and destroy.......



I mean who the fuck is buying anything from these fuckers nowadays.......... at SweetWater :dunno:

The problem with you living in socialist america (California) is that you have no concept of money.

You are right, they should raise their prices to the consumer to pay employees more. Or better yet, they could outsource salesman jobs to India...

I dont know if you are smart enough to see where I am going with this.

Yup and SweetWater.....


And fucks in Fort Wayne Indiana have every concept of MONEY and such "economics" they do there....... Constructing a 3rd World Country within America.......


At SweetWater......... in Fort Wayne Indiana....... 👍


Constructing a monopoly within the music industry........ :dunno: :unsure: :p





And destroying the American Music Industry in the process...... And ain't that the fucking truth that SweetWater is somehow worse than Amazon in that sense and absolutely is :yes:
 
IMO the way SweetWater conducts business is purely UnAmerican......


And yeah many names like Fender, Gibson or Martin or anyone else under their umbrella or their clients wouldnt say it openly but yeah fuck the BS....... But behind closed doors...... Yeah....



Fuck SweetWater........ and IMO companies/vendors like Fender, Gibson, Martin and everyone else in the industry should stop letting the tail wag the dog :dunno:
 
Sorry but you are full of it. Have you even been up to Sweetwater? They support the local economy there and have amazing intern programs, etc.

Did you just get a job at a local Guitar Center? That is the only way I can seem to justify your rant. I've been using Sweetwater for well over 30 years and have never had a significant issue.

I'm sorry.....

But I'm not some well to do fuck..... That can afford to travel to pretty much the otherside of America..... Or go to Hawaii or whatever BS lame crap people who shop at SweetWater/Amazon/Whole Foods or other gay shit like that go to........



Like most average Americans I figure and if I had money to travel why the fuck would I go to SweetWater in Fort Wayne Indiana and as said a 3rd World Country within America relative to anywhere else in America or the world
:dunno:
