This idea merits further consideration.

They'll just replace it with baked apple, like Gibson when they had all their rosewood impounded.

So maple wood is safe for now? thank god, I love maple neck guitars. But this thread is convincing me to hold onto all my rosewood fretboards in case shit hits the fan. Then maybe a nice price increase for them
Another start-up idea, try and make a start-up company to recycle rosewood guitars, for those stubborn old fashioned.
Also, I like the idea someone mentioned earlier with a Start-up company to create a woodless neck and/or body.
Lets see what time has in store for us.
And I'm down for a start up if the end of rosewood comes. I can see that as s potential thing to capitalize on.
