West-512's are all rosewood guitars. But I know what you mean about the abalone ring on a sunburst top, that's what my DV-52 has

Dred, I'll bet that is one fine looking DV-52. Post a picture of that jewel.

Darryl,
No kidding......My wife makes handmade jewelry. Once she decided she wanted to have a website. She was racking her brain for a name for her business. Remember....she's a natural blonde. Anyway, I suggested "The Family Jewels" with a straight face. My son helped her build the site, and when it came time to name her business, she looked at my 20 year old son and said..."The Family Jewels". He told me he thought he was going to die laughing. He literally fell out of his chair. She asked him what was so funny and he let the cat out of the bag.
See....I'm not just a smart a_ _ here.

Call it "Coastie's Jewels." You'd get a lot of hits with that sight..., er, uh, I mean "site."
