Meanwhile in Japan (AC Koyama Music Trade Japan)
Yamano Music has announced that They are going to stop the dealing of Fender USA products. Yamana was Fender authorized dealer for almost 40 years. Fender USA has started new company already.
However, it is delay and delay now. Even their WEB site is not prepared yet. On the other hand, Kanda Shokai also stopped the handling of Fender Japan. This is also one of the result of Fender USA's new operation here.
As I said, Dyna Musical instrument Co has already stop the Fender Japan production. Well, there are some possibility that Fender Japan will be disappeared.
The sale of Japanese music Industries are seriously dropped now. Not only guitar productions. Many Music Shop are closed due to the poor sales results. Yes, the WEB sales are making them very tough to sell the guitars. Many people just have a look at shop, and purchased the guitars on WEB.
Now, music industries here is drastically changing. The companies like Gibson and Fender which have the huge investment from the fund should re-plan the sales strategy. I felt the old fashion could not be effective for this market. Maybe need new business structure and strategy.
