Hi folks,
Recently I´ve heard that IRW will be introduced to the CITES regulations as an endangered species which means its use (trade in every term) has to be restricted. I´ve heard that by a friend who´s into wooden parts and it was confirmed by an other guy, who spoke to someone at Taylor guitars.
As a matter of fact, BRW is for several years on the list, it´s been still used and processed even by PRS but its trading is limited to the USA. You all are familiar with the stamp "USA only". To export it from to the USA/to import it to other countries/states CITES data is a must for documentation of the origin and legal harvest.
What is the output/outcome to the approach of adding IRW to the list? Does it lead to the fact that PRS now has to deliver CITES information as case candy? Will they processe other woods for non-USA-market?
