As I understand it, the number one ADVANTAGE of the Greenline is freedom
from cracking. That and environmental friendliness, since it used scrap
grenadilla wood instead of fresh trees. The word I have heard is that they
are at least as good, and some find them better, than Buffet's regular
instruments. There are complaints about them being somewhat HEAVIER than
the standard wood ones, though.
