Hi Everyone
I'd be interested in knowing anyone thoughts on how the CITES rules will affect the vintage guitar market particularly regarding Braz rosewood. If I understand the rules correctly if you want to import a vintage Les Paul from the US into Europe you need both export and import CITES documentation, I'll still not sure if you can resell the guitar at later date in your own country, I know in Germany at one point you could not resell the guitar.
I've spoken to a few US dealers who are not shipping to Europe at the moment. Is it a good time to buy a vintage Les Paul or not, especially if you are based in Europe.
Love to hear your thoughts
