Is the Guitar Dead/Dying?

So, over the years, the electric guitar has been the platform for new musicians. The combination of price and range has played a key part in this. But what was the last time that the pop charts were set ablaze by a guitar pop song? The real question here is: Is the guitar the starting point for those wishing to play music? Are people even making music with their guitars anymore, or bypassing it altogether to make music on their computers?

Yeah, I know the topic is a strangely worded, but I'm writing a short piece on the topic, and would like to know if anyone would be willing to help me out on this.
