I just visited Gibson’s YouTube channel. They had a short video with footage taken from some event, and they had some unknown track as a background to a bunch of… crap, really. There was nothing interesting in the video, nothing of any value. Here is the comment I left:
Meanwhile, other companies get social media. Celestion Speakers has a fantastic Facebook page and you should follow it. They’re constantly posting stuff that’s either funny or interesting. Not every post is a winner, but I see their name every day, and that’s what companies want.
SIDE NOTE – In life, complaining without offering a possible solution makes you a complainer. Bitching about something will make you feel better temporarily, but sharing an idea to solve the problem means you’ve actually done something, even if no one listens. You might be smart enough to point out something wrong. But are you smart enough to point out how to fix it? This is something I think guitarists of all ages should consider. Any dumbass can bitch about something. Smart people can also suggest solutions. Dumbass or smart person, it’s up to us when we leave comments.
