I'm trying real hard to not sound uppity and high ended because I understand the sensitive of this topic. I do have many sets of rosewood in stock and other species on CITES as well that I will indeed use some day. But one thing I will not ever use again is Ivory. And I do have some of that in stock. I won't use it because in doing so I believe it promotes the use of it. Even if it's fossilized or has been around since the 1920's. I am not judging anyone in that statement I am simply stating my philosophy and hoping it catches on Obviously I have my own acceptable level of appropriateness. Someone else might consider me hypocritical since I'll still use rosewood. I'm fine with that.

I've played a few carbon fiber guitars before and have been quite impressed with the tone. It's not my thing personally as a builder but I'd love to have one as like a camp fire or boating/beach guitar.
