Width specs have not been changed specifically but when we make new jigs to replace the old ones things somehow come out slightly different but not that be easily measured.

As far as depth measurements go this can and has changed from time to time as well as bass to bass. These basses are all hand carved. The machines only cut away the bulk of the material. Then they are carved, shaped and sanded by hand. No two basses come out exactly alike.

In my opinion, I feel that the current basses we make at any given time are always the best they have been. Why do any less, ever?
