Hi,
I'm new here, just got the email confirming my registration, and I have a question regarding the finish on my 1993 DV-52 NT (serial number EK10XXXX). It has a matte finish, and as it was bought used, it needs a little bit of TLC in terms of a setup (pretty standard for a used guitar), and has a couple of dings that I would like to have touched up. A good friend of mine is actually a very experienced luthier, and is more than willing to undertake the work, but he asked if the finish, which is admirably thin, is nitro or something else. I told him I didn't know, and I'd try to find out, which is why I am here. Does anybody know? I thought it might be some sort of poly finish because its matte, but he told me that nitro could be matte as well.
