once the start trek replicator's in place, we can all have 70 year old pre war braz martins!!

seriously now... spruce has only 6 years left? i saw the article too. the article says they are being sold to japan to build houses. does that mean 50 years later when those houses are torn down and we'll all the sudden have a big batch of ages spruce to work with? haha. seriously.... spruce only has 6 years left? it's like doomsday for guitars... i mean isn't like 90% of the guitars spruce topped?

back to the rainsong... i played one and thought it was really nice. it had a nice sound, very bright in my opinion, but sounded nice and played well. one really has to be in the market for a very very durable guitar to pick one of these up, but i could imagine big markets for these things.
