There are quite a number of wooden houses here that are well over 500 years old. Withstood the elements, generations, everything. And that is comparably soft wood (mostly pine). So really, come on, water trail...yech.
I agree that there may be a sensation of "blown out". We change, and the instrument probably changes a bit too. After some time the two paths of development have diverged too much and it's time for a re-orientation. Doesn't mean that the instrument is objectively at the end of its life - it has just become too incompatible. Just as we step up from a 2.5 reed to a 4ish. It'd be more honest to say "I don't like it any more as much as I did six years ago" than to blame it on "it's blown out".
Do artists retire, or are they replaced because they're "blown out"? ![[tongue]](http://test.woodwind.org/clarinet/BBoard/smileys/smilie6.gif)
