DV72CL

[GAD]

Does anyone here have one of these? I'm writing about the DV72 family and it's the only one I don't have any good pictures of.

What is a CL?

On some Guild guitars CL means one of last ones built in Westerly while CM means made in Corona. This is from memory from a past post without research. Maybe Hans will clearify

Coral (pink). It’s the third variant of the DV72. Looks very similar to the DV76.

Been looking for one for quite a while.

On some Guild guitars CL means ... Westerly while CM means made in Corona.

Those are Bluesbird prefixes only.

As awagner said, CL stand for "Coral" ! On the label was "DV72NTCL"

A Paul Ducker has AD720137, he posted that serial number and picture before on various public pages like Facebook:

Thanks, fellas, that's what I figured after I thought about it.

 

[GAD]

Sorry - yes, Coral, and that’s the one picture I’ve found.

From an old Reverb ad:

That is not a DV72CL it’s a DV76. Similar but different.

 

[awagner]

That’s mine. The Reverb seller never owned it.

 

[dreadnut]

Wow, awagner, what did he do, rip off your photo and list it?

 

[gjmalcyon]

That is not a DV72CL it’s a DV76. Similar but different.

Yeah, I thought that was too easy ...

 

[awagner]

Wow, awagner, what did he do, rip off your photo and list it?

It’s a long story, but the Reverb “seller“ listed it when he thought he had purchased it from the shop in Nottingham England that actually had it. He was almost scammed by a “facilitator”, but I later purchased it from that shop. The pictures were from the store’s ad.

And for the record, the store had nothing to do with the attempted scam.

I have 3 DV-72CL in my spreadsheet (none of them owned by LTGers), all clustered within 7 SNs (awagner's and my 72MKs also cluster with them, just a few SNs lower). Unfortunately, the only pics I grabbed off the web were the ones from facebook... I believe that you can still find those if you google Guild DV-72 and wade thru enough pics... But I don't know that they will be sufficient for your purposes...
