CITES is really only a worry if you are in the business of selling guitars - it can be a concern if you want to buy guitars and they need to cross international borders, but the paperwork and documentation is the responsibility of the seller. Most builders who use CITES listed materials have gotten this figured out. And it is now pretty clear that carrying a personal instrument into a country is not likely to trigger any problems (although you may still have to look out for the shell materials).

Really good question....I actually think they could or the Feds could stop interstate commerce on certain things. Real-life example: Bob Colossi can only ship ivory saddles/nuts within the state of Georgia. He cannot ship ivory to another state. I don’t know if that’s GA state law or Fed regulation but it prohibits that inter-state commerce.

If states can make laws more restrictive than the federal-level CITES then even those who never leave the USA may some day regret buying a guitar with outlawed wood. When wood is outlawed, only outlaws will have wood. Last edited by Tico; 06-19-2019 at 12:05 AM. |

ever since the new CITES regulation, including EIR, it's almost impossible to buy guitars built with EIR from the USA. Even it's just coming up to Canada.

Three months ago I bought a 2009 built guitar in California with EIR back and sides with ebony fingerboard and bridge.
I carried back to Australia from the U.S. via Hawaii. It was definitely viewed by U.S. customs as it had an inspection card inside the case. We got through easy enough. BRW ..... well that might be another issue.. |

And yes, should the CITES bureaucrats implement additional unnecessary radical restrictions, the “wailing and gnashing of teeth” would start here. You must remember, the entire wood consumption for all musical instruments is but the proverbial flea on the tail of the dog of worldwide exotic wood consumption. Being caught up in the web of the true villains—guess who? The Chinese—as they poach mountains of exotic lumber for their absurd furniture industry is deplorable.

CITES is an international agreement enforced by Customs, not a federal law. A don't know why a state would want to make up its own law banning more than CITES does.

https://americanorchestras.org/advoc...-policies.html -- ... While musical instruments that contain Brazilian rosewood already require CITES permits under the treaty’s highest Appendix I level of protection and will continue to do so, very many stringed instruments that contain Indian rosewood... have not been subject to CITES permit rules. As the underlying threat to rosewood species is driven by a demand for large luxury furniture items, the music community successfully appealed to the CITES Parties to add an exemption for the small quantity of rosewood found in musical instruments so that permits would not be required when instruments are merely transported across borders for performances and personal use. Sales of these items across borders, on the other hand, will now require permits.
