Mike, Phil and Paul:
These are just some quickie pics but I think you will get the gist of the subtle differences between the two models. The MacNaught on the right is my serial number 1 from 1992. Its shape is very similar to a vintage D.






Now that both models are side by side and over laid on each other you will see the most dramatic change is in the pinched in waist of the V2 and slightly shorter overall length.





There are some other very small differences in the upper and lower bout radii but I'm sorry to say that my photographic skills don't capture them accurately.
