Or is it just a remaining habit from the old days to bill rosewood guitars more expensive?

I would think, other things being equal, even boring, blingless EIR can command a higher price due to the quality tone it produces. It's kicka** stuff, plain and simple.

In a recent conversation I had with a sales person, I commented on the attitude of many toward EIR. He snickered and said "Yeah, and we're gonna be really sorry when it's gone...really sorry!" Sounds like we may be there fairly soon.
