I play a ZON Sonus 4 which uses a carbon composite neck attached to a body made
of wood. It never goes out of tune, sustains as if there's no tomorrow, and has
a very tasty tone.

Years ago, while quite new to guitars, I had purchased a Les Paul Custom as my
first electric, and found it to be way too heavy. I sold it and then went
looking for its replacement. I came across two guitars in a store and was
unfamiliar with either guitar's name. They both sounded and played great. I
ended up taking home a patent-applied-for version of G&L's S500 (a very
different guitar from the current model by the same name), and left on the shelf
a very nice Modulus.

My friend, far more experienced than myself at the time, had told me that real
guitars are made from wood!

Hey all,

How many of you have played a Carbon Fiber instrument, and what were

the pros and cons? I have a few designs in my head and I'm also

wondering if there is a good market for some sort of carbon fiber

solid body, semi hollow or hollow body electric bass? Would you be

interested??
