East Indian Rosewood became the next best thing for guitar makers after Brazilian Rosewood (Dalbergia nigra) was placed on the endangered species listing in the 1960s. It has now been placed as a CITES Appendix II listing due to the worldwide restriction on all Dalbergia (True Rosewood) species. This makes it almost impossible to import but we do have a fair amount of material still in stock from pre-CITES imports.
