Watched a documentary last night. Need a fact check some way. There are more turntables sold than guitars by 3:1. The Origins of Hip Hop with Grandmaster Flash was the doc

I can see it nowadays, unfortunately.

Its reflective in the pawn shops..back in the day, you'd see guitars that were worth a shite in many shops..now, not as many have been sold in the past 20 years so people haven't had them to get rid of.

quote:

The number of turntables sold in the United States rose by nearly four percent in 2020 over the previous year. Overall, approximately 75 thousand turntables were sold in the U.S in 2020, whereas the unit sales of this product reached 72 thousand in 2019.

The number of guitars sold in the United States fell from around 2.8 million units in 2019 to 2.74 million units in 2020. While both figures were above the average number of guitars sold in a year during the past decade, the market has not been able to emulate the peak of 3.3 million units sold in 2005.

I thought a ton of guitars were sold during Covid.

That's seemed to be a prevailing theme for awhile.

I can see that statistic being true. As a matter of fact, I've got two turntables sitting right here, plus one microphone.
