Question Time for a separate Carbon Guitar section?

Ok, let's hear your opinions. Is it time for the carbon crowd to have their own section?

I'm guessing he posted this in the main section, and the mods moved it here.

Bernie, I don't see any CF guitars in your signature yet. What's the holdup?

I would assume, by the time you see these responses, that you now know we already have a CF forum here. So, looking for some CF info? This is the place to ask.

Correct me if I have erred....But this is the Acoustic Guitar Forum, and are not carbon fiber guitars also acoustic guitars? I really do not think we need to classify these instruments as anything other than acoustic guitars.
And, while on the subject, there are (in my opinion) some advantages to having a carbon fiber guitar, but it was the sound that the resulted in my being drawn to them. I know that this may not be the case for all owners. Just saying.........

Maybe we should establish a metaforum to talk about the carbon fiber forum? Someone should start a thread.

This was all heavily debated last year after the creation of a separate Carbon Fiber Guitar subforum on AGF...

maybe he meant a subforum strictly for carbon guitars, as opposed to carbon fiber guitars.

or maybe he meant, "is it time?", like was it established too early.

(just teasing ptc bernie - - i've done the same thing)

i like the idea of a whole series of metaforums to discuss all the subforums, and maybe even a meta-meta forum to discuss the metaforums.

by moving the metaquestion here, to the carbon fiber subforum, it has removed the meta-ness of it. i think it should go to open mic, where it would have a completely different meaning.

i'll spent the rest of my morning thinking about this...
