Environmental Guitars?

Paul Wag Posted 2003-02-03 8:32 AM (#213000) Subject: Environmental Guitars? Joined: December 2002 Posts: 939 Location: Fort Worth, Texas I've noticed a couple of statements on some threads about the scarcity of good wood (was it cms-man?) to craft good guitars out of. Which leads me to wonder if Ovations could be considered a "green" guitar. Seems if there is less wood in the guitar, than fewer trees are cut down. But, then what's involved in the manufacturing of the backs? Where does the wood come from? Is the wood farmed? Are the backs made at the factory? Will my day care person show up soon so I can go to work and stop asking all these questions? Hey, she's here!

The Q will save lots of wood, since there is none in the guitar itself. But imagine how many trees will be killed to print all the paper for the money it costs to buy the darn thing. :-) Alina
