The number after the dash is a color code.

1617-1 would be a Sunburst finish.

1617-4 would be a Natural finish.

I hope that helps.

Thanks, can't believe it was something so simple. A lot of people omit that part from their listings so I hadn't noticed the pattern.

If anyone has an opinion on the sound of a 1617 vs. a 1719 I'd be interested in hearing it. I was originally searching for a 1617 and found one on eBay but the USPS was kind enough to destroy it.

Now I'm looking at other options so I don't have to keep searching forever...
