Hans:
Thanks for the correction. I sort of doubted that I had it all right. I am anxiously awaiting The Guild Guitar Book Vol. 2. I can only go from what I have gathered on my own, and my memory is not always 100%.
Tunes:
The Westerly DV-6s were spruce topped, mahogany back and sides.
The Tacoma DV-6s were spruce topped, rosewood back and sides.
Both are correct, depending on where the guitar was built. I have a Westerly DV-6, and it is a really good example of a spruce/mahogany Dread, one of the best guitars I have heard.
The Vintage series had things like herringbone or Mother of Pearl rosettes. They also had the Chesterfield on the headstock, gold Rotomatic tuners, and the pickguards were either tortoiseshell (my DV-6) or black (my DV-52). The higher end models had things like turquoise rosettes/fretboard dots, and turquoise Chesterfields and Guild Logos. I don't know if the guitars were voiced differently.
Hans would be best to detail the differences, or whether the DV-6 followed the D-6, for example, which could be the case.
