Ashvin, it would seem your main competition couldn't build them that cheaply either.

I am curious why they do not use the Carbon and Glass on the soundboard, as this is where a majority of the sound resonates from, not the b/s??

Hi Lisa:
By "body" I mean Soundboard, back and sides. However, the use of glass on the soundboard is very limited. This has a lot to do with strength. Glass is nowhere as strong as carbon, and extensive use of glass on the soundboard would either cause the soundboard to buckle, and/or become excessively heavy.

Ashvin, thanks for all the input into this thread. I'm a proud owner of a WS1000 and very interested in new Rainsong models. I, too, would be very interested in a travel guitar, but more so in a short scale, slot head model.

Just ordered a HS-DR1000N2 Hybrid Studio Dreadnought from Tarpman. Looking forward to it. I really like the spartan look of unfinished, matte carbon. I don't really like the gloss finished models. I almost pulled the trigger on a CA Legacy Raw this time last year and glad I waited, seeing what has happened to CA in the past year and now the availability of a comparable Rainsong model. Looking forward to getting it in a week and really enjoying it as a great stage guitar that I won't have to worry so much about dinging it up or leaving it in the car for an hour or so if necessary.
