Well, I had seen 1 RainSong in the Brownsville, Texas, Guitar Center - hanging high enough you couldn't get at it. So, I was aware that Guitar Center could potentially get these. For that sales person I spoke with, I had to (and I am not kidding) tell him how to spell "RainSong" so he could look it up. He said, "No one in our region has one of these. I'm a 'guitar specialist' and I've never heard of carbon fiber before."

Since that time, I have come across an occasional GC that has one RainSong in stock - most that I have visited have had... none.

Puzzling? Not my experience. And, I am not a Guitar Center hater... just found that when I was first looking, only one store I was in had one; and they didn't know much about it. Now, years later... not much has changed.
