Unless somewhere in the world they are framing houses with rosewood, this lady is spewing crap.
IIRC, most rosewood is used for residential flooring. Even an entire guitar uses very little rosewood compared to the rest of the woods used (yes, there are guitars made entirely of rosewood but these are very rare). A nine pound Gibson Les Paul would have a rosewood fretboard weighing just a few ounces.
Just seen the Elvis Rosewood Telecaster for sale on ebay recently, seller wanted $350,000
Hi,
Can’t help but think most of the woods they designate as Rosewood are in fact unrelated to the genus, just a marketing label.
I have a piece of wood I bought once called “Tiete Rosewood” I don’t know the species, couldn’t find out at the time, but I know it’s not a member of the Dalbergia genus.
Dalbergia timber is very expensive; $20 bft or so raw.
