I'm really bonding with the D15, but no other dreadnaught I've ever owned responds and sounds like my '76 D25M Louise, she's 45 years old this year. Even better that the DV52 tonally. Louise is on the left, D15 on the right.

Gotta be the DV52 he handed down to his son. It has custom fretboard maker inlays.

Well, you're gonna' have to name the D-15 Thelma.
Seriously, beautiful pair of archies.

Nice comparison of appointments, same shape and nearly identical body shading, headstock, pickguard, bridge differences.
You can really check that TRC for proper orientation on Thelma from across the room ;]
I like the oldie best, but I usually like old things more.

I'm more inclined to name her after a song like Louise.
It needs to be a song I can play and sing, so I think she will be "Amanda."
