How about furnitures? Just look at the homes of affluent Chinese families. It's sickening guitar makers get the blame, when the demand should be curbed elsewhere.
I think there are more guitar players with cheapo guitars than affluent Chinese families with rosewood furniture. So, in terms of absolute demand, guitarists should make furniture out of 95% of their sucky sounding guitars.
Just sayin... I have a camphor chest but I don't know of any guitar that uses camphor as a wood. I do have so many guitars of recent vintage that makes me guilty of consuming too much wood but they sound amazing.
My friend, Cliff Cultreri, has tried to turn me on to non wood guitars but I have NOT chosen to bite. Last year, Parker closed.
I am expecting a signed Gibson Vivian Campbell to come in next week that uses Richlite. I curse Gibson for not putting real ebony on it. So, lets face it; guitarists destroy the Earth more than furniture because I can hardly remember when I bought a piece of solidwood rare extinct piece of furniture but I remember the wood spec of the last guitar which I just bought yesterday.
