Location: 6 String Ranch | Jeff, I'm in agreement with you on the narrowness. That's why I don't have one anymore. Great sounding guitars though. |

Location: Earth·SolarSystem·LocalInterstellarCloud·Local Bub | I'm amazed at how different the rounder neck profile on the 47's at the same nut width, feel so much more "roomy". Profile makes a huge difference.
(though the wider, rounder FD14 neck is the donkey's balls) |

I agree how the 47RI feels much bigger than the neck profile. Everything I have been acquiring lately has to have the 1 3/4" neck as a minimum. |

Location: Earth·SolarSystem·LocalInterstellarCloud·Local Bub | The Lowden (o25) has a suh-weet-assed 1-3/4" nut with a neck profile very similar to the Fudd. Luv-it. |

Love the feel of it. |
