Look here.

An article from today's Wall Street Journal that is pretty bizarre. Perhaps useful as further rationalization for faux veneers.

...and if you name happens to be Jeff, from Australia, it adds another dimension of urgency to the old adage of '...locking up your daughter.' :o :(

Madagaskar ebony, not Macassar. No restrictions on Macassar that I'm aware of, except at a certain German drum company.

Who cares. Nowhere in that article do I see the word "Walnut".

From what I can tell in the article, it doesn't matter. Suspicion of incorrect wood is excuse enough.

My REAL Walnut has already been placed on the drums. So I still don't care.

It's not enough to know that the body of your old guitar is made of spruce and maple: What's the bridge made of? If it's ebony, do you have the paperwork to show when and where that wood was harvested and when and where it was made into a bridge? Is the nut holding the strings at the guitar's headstock bone, or could it be ivory? "Even if you have no knowledge—despite Herculean efforts to obtain it—that some piece of your guitar, no matter how small, was obtained illegally, you lose your guitar forever," Prof. Thomas has written. "Oh, and you'll be fined $250 for that false (or missing) information in your Lacey Act Import Declaration."



This really wigs me out. I am so sick of government do-gooders making criminals out of the voting citizens!
:evil:

No kidding! If we can hire these people to harass us, then how do we fire them? :roll:
