Dalbergia melanoxylon was not listed because of its conservation status, or because woodwind manufacture is threatening it.

It was listed by CITES only because it is in the Dalbergia genus. They "banned" all 500 some members of the genus because a few are endangered, and many are hard to distinguish from one another. Instrument makers are not to blame. Most of the endangered species were already under protection, or totally banned. Poaching is rampant for the furniture trade.

I don't think that it is necessary for student models to be wood, or that pros have to use wood. It's just that there is no Blackwood crisis. The CITES listing had nothing to do with the available supply of Blackwood, or the impact that woodwind manufacture is having. It's entirely because of poaching of other species in the same genus.
