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.
I had to order my Rainsong from GC. The manager had only seen one other carbon fiber guitar at a larger GC up north that he had previously managed. I told him he ought to stock a few. He said corporate wouldn't let him.
