                Yes, maybe but wouldn't you go broke waiting those seven 
years. I once heard that air dried sail boat mast rarely snapped but kiln 
dried ones did so more often. Sailors any truth to that story???
          I have some Sitka spruce boards made from air dried lumber cured 
for  twenty years. I can't tell a stitch of difference subjectively or 
objectively in the sound. It ain't just one thing.
