Default Interesting Rainsong Article

For those of you who missed the 5/11/2011 Woodinville Patch...http://woodinville.patch.com/article...in-woodinville

Am I the last one to realize the irony of carbon fiber guitars being built in Woodinville????

Geez, I never noticed the irony of that, that's really quite funny. I didn't know Ashvin was the owner either but it seems like it was fortunate for RS when he entered the family. It sounds like his business decisions have made good sense and I hope RainSong is thriving because I really need a Shorty but it may be a few years before I can buy one (one kid in college and another about to be).

Realized it about a year ago after my dealer mentioned it!

Actually, Ashwin is the President/CEO. John Decker is still the owner.

Nice article, thanks for sharing!
