Beautiful bass. Can you measure the width of the neck at the nut and at the 24th fret position?

Width at nut is 2", and at 24th fretline position is 3.25". Thanks for inquiries, comments, and preliminary offers so far. Here are a couple pics. I'm working on making access to over a dozen other close up pics easier for those who neither have nor want to open a Snapfish account. Thanks for your patience. Again, best to correspond via MAHLBRO @ yahoo com

PRICE DROP!

To those who have been asking, please note that this is a rubbed-oil natural finish over clear wood. There is no "sunburst" finish on the top, nor is it flamed maple. The light spot in the center is from the camera flash reflecting off the claro walnut wood. Beautiful bass, warm, big-hearted, soulful, "mmwwwah" sound.
