Hi, James--

A serial number search brought up the year 1994. Here is the Blue Book info on the guitar:


DY 70 MAPLE GRAPHITE
- dreadnought style, solid spruce top, round soundhole, tortoiseshell bound body/rosette, flamed maple back/sides, mahogany neck, 14/20-fret rosewood fingerboard with pearl dot inlay/12th fret pearl curlicue inlay, graphite bridge with black abalone dot pins, graphite peghead veneer with pearl logo inlay, three-per-side chrome tuners, available in Natural gloss finish, mfg. 1994-98.

Excellent $500 - 575
Average $350 - 400
