Ken,

I think it is around 42-42.5". I should have measured it, but spaced out and didn't think about it.

I know it has new neck. (relatively) It was worked on by Bob's Bass Violin Shop in Greensboro, NC when Eliot purchased it. It is a very nice bass, and one that I sit with often in the Greenville Symphony. We have some good wood in that section. It has a really nice sound. Not the most powerful Prescott I have ever played, but very even and I think it is still coming back from all of the interior work that was done to it in the restoration.

It was truly a privledge to work on a bass of this magnitude.
