In Tune with Tun

The Indian sitar and tanpura are nowadays mostly crafted out of Toon (or Tun as sometimes written in Western phonetic translation), an Indian variety of the Red Cedar: 'Cedrella Toona'. The Teak which was used before has run largely out of supply ... and even Tun is available in restricted volumes these days.
While visiting British Columbia, Canada's Western foresty region, Green Onion will do some investigations on the supply of Western Red Cedar as a possible replacement for Tun.

What do the specialists say?
