Location: the BIG Metropolis of TR | Pure speculation also, but I think the nylon stringed Viper has a pretty thin neck profile....
At least it felt that way when I played Woz's at one of the tours....but at the time I was also playing my wideneck Folklore and it may have just seemed thinner!? |

On a side note, the older I've gotten, the thicker I like 'em. On a certain level it sounds weird but it's true. |

Location: Campbell River, British Columbia | But width I mean nut/fret length. I've got short fingers and I'm lazy.
I prefer to use 1 finger for Em & A. 2 fingers for E & D.
....plus it leaves fingers free for 'diddlys' above or below the chord. |

Location: NW Washington State | My 1624 Country Artist is a hair less than 1-7/8" at the nut and has a 25-1/4" scale.
Since speculation is rampant, I'll speculate that a 1674 would be similar. And I'll speculate that the speculation about the nylon-string Viper being narrower might be correct.
