I've got a Fender DG-8S. Not the greatest guitar in the world, but a solid spruce top for $200 was a pretty good deal at the time.

Along the way, I happen to come across other DG-8S's that are a little different than mine. Did fender release other models or have these been modded by the owners?

Mine is glossy all over, with a strap button on the back and on the front above the neck on the body.

I've seen one where there is no front strap button, and one with a satin finish on neck and back of the headstock. I don't think the guy sanded it down himself because it was fairly smooth and even all around.

I never did like the front strap button and much prefer it to be on the bottom of the neck joint like most other guitars. I am considering screwing the strap button on the neck but then I'd have to plug up the hold in the body.
