I can't speak to the sales numbers but I think there has been a recent upsurge in the interest in acoustic guitars and acoustic playing among my grandson's (age16) generation and the one just after him. This may be due to folks like Sheeran and Mayer but there is an underground scene of very fine artists not to mention the "new country" stuff.
I think the 60's and 70's bubble is about burst as we the boomers, fade away.
I do believe the sales of guitars at $2500 and up will slide dramatically over the next decade.
