Subject: RE: Seriously, guitars made in Argentina
Excellent information on the jacaranda tree, Kat. In the summer, the flowers of jacaranda change the landscape of Buenos Aires producing a spectacular effect, since there are thousands of jacaranda trees in the streets. This has impressed very much Peter T. when he visited us.

However I understand that the jacaranda wood used for guitars is not the same, probably they use some variety imported from Brazil or native of the northern territory of the Chaco or Misiones in the Brazilian border.

eer ..Jacaranda trees are on sale too.
