I went to that plant a few years back. If it is the one I am thinking of, it is near the Opryland Hotel. I played a guitar that was priced at $14,995

I was just talking to a friend of mine about this today and he said someone told him that the wood in question was from 20 years or better and therefore not a problem. We shall see I guess.

You'd better be careful. Instead of making pens, you'll be making license plates.
