Rainsong came first and paved the way. CA came along later, with the major contribution being that Ellis Seal came up with a way to add bracing to the top - that is not needed structurally - to affect the sound. As a result many folks feel that CAs sound more wood like than Rainsongs. CA also had some very unusual designs that got folks excited.

Rainsong has begun making some models that blend carbon fiber with kevlar (or is it fiberglass?) that are more mellow sounding. AND Rainsong has begun making carbon fiber guitars with adjustable necks.
