Well I'll do the best I can Walt, but someone else can come along and correct me, or elaborate. First off, my guitar pictured there is a DV72. Shelby and I may have confused you in our discussion of the DV73, which I used to own, but sold to Stuball.West, what a gorgeous DV73. The Turquoise accents always blow me away.
I still don't know the differences between the DV72, DV73 and the DV74. Since you have all three would you please elaborate? My curiosity is getting the best of me because I've asked myself exactly that every time I see one of them!
The DV72, DV73 and DV74 are the same guitar, with slightly different inlay. The DV72 has a narrow turquoise inlay, the DV73 has a wider turquoise, black onyx and red coral inlay, and Shelby can describe the inlay on his DV74, but I think it's a pink coral. There is also a variation of the DV72 with a malachite inlay as opposed to the turquoise. There is also an elusive DV76 out there, but can't remember the inlay material. And if I'm not mistaken, there may even be a DV82 out there somewhere. Again, as far as I am aware, they are all the same guitar with varying material used in the rosettes.
And thank you Walt. She is my true Guild love.
