So after a rough day burying my nephew and all that, then I came home and saw the two dreads lined up in the bedroom and I was like WTF?? I always thought they were 1994 dreads out of the same mold and except for the arched back on the maple one I figured they were pretty much identical. Nope. Here's the photo I had to take and......
So then I had to measure. The maple looked so much thicker than the rosewood!! So getting out my trusty tape, I find that:
Maple D65S: Upper bout depth is 4 1/8", lower bout is 5". Body length is 19 3/4".
Rosewood DV72: Upper bout 4". Lower bout 4 7/8". Body length is 20".
Who KNEW?? I basically thought same guitar with different woods and arched vs. flat backs. Didn't know until I was walking in and looked at this scene and thought, "Oh wait!!"
Just some more details, amigos y amigas!!
Tomas :encouragement:
p.s. - please realize that the rosewood is a whole guitar length closer to the camera. This is not a scientific study.
Void where prohibited by law and in the state of Virginia...... ;-P
