Red_Label -> RE: All Rosewood now under restrictions acc. to CITES (Jan. 11 2017 17:22:54)

Wow... that's wacky. We're gonna have to play 3D printed plastic guitars if this keeps up. I guess the upside might be that as rosewood becomes more rare, it will become more valuable and perhaps those with large collections sitting around will be more motivated to sell some off, and thus share more rosewood instruments with others. I'm partial to cypress, spruce, and ebony... so the rosewood thing doesn't yet have a big impact on me. I suppose it's only a matter of time before some of those woods are restricted as well.
