The organized crime network known as Ebay Global Shipping impounded a '62 Melody Maker of mine years back.
So even with some relaxation (I heard) of CITES -- not sure what or when-- still say you wanted to buy a Tennessean out of the UK for example ... just can't be done??
I just picked that as an example -- I mean there are so many here why do that-- but you get the idea..
Sorry...this has probably been covered before but is ebony Cites exempt if I were to buy a guitar with an ebony board in the US and ship to the UK?
Yes. Rosewood is the problem wood.
And they know how to spot the difference at customs right ?
Well if they don't then tell them it's pine.
But are the horror stories true? Someone makes a mistake...your guitar gets impounded and there’s nothing you can do
