I've been watching these Dream Catcher truss rod covers come and go on eBay for several years... but never seemed to know which Guild to put one on, so always passed them up.

One popped up again recently, and I thought... that would look nice on the DV-72MK! The pearl feathers match the pearl in the fret markers, and the ab has a greenish hue (more so in person) for the malachite. I happened to have a little birthday cash from my mom, so what the hey...

Here it is:

I think it looks pretty nice!

WOW.

I'm not one for ornate guitars, but this combination.... there's something stately about it. Very nice!!

Dave, that DV72 Malachite is just such a beautiful guitar. Period. Truss rod cover is a nice touch. A perfect non-permanent modification!!

I did spend a good amount of time trying to decipher the subject of the thread before I actually opened it. I never figured it out. LOL!! :encouragement:

Nice Gardman, I have that same truss rod cover on all of my Guild acoustics and electrics. I've been going to WEC for about 5-6 years now for all of my Truss rod covers. WEC does some nice inlay work and the Quality is always top notch. That looks awesome on your DV-72MK!

Nice.

You know, I'm mildly disturbed that I saw the letters "ntrcd" and knew instantly what they meant.

I really like it Dave. What some may not realize is that the high end DV's have a southwestern motif. The dream catcher enhances the theme of that particular guitar, and goes well. Our member "Coastie" sent me one (custom) out of the blue once which I display on my DV73. The hat matches the coral and the lettering matches the turquoise, and again, with the southwest theme.

I've been looking for a nice "Southwestern" design for a custom TRC for my DV-73... to be "rendered" in Turquoise, coral, and nickel silver, to match the 73s trim. Been thinking of a thunderbird, but haven't yet found one that nicely fits the "vertical" aspect ratio of a TRC... so I am still on the lookout.

Gardman there's a chance Wile E Coyote might be able to do you a custom job . He makes the dream catchers . ;)
