I don't know about the Annivesary, but the standard scale for the MK is 34". Signature electronics have a p/up pan knob, while Anniversary electronics have a p/up selector switch & add a stereo/mono switch for the ¼" output. And while every Anniversary I've seen a picture of has the Large Standard Omega body, the MK starts with Large Standard Point; the omega is an option. There may other differences as well - anyone?

The 20th Anniversary guitar and bass have unique shapes. They are smaller than the Standard Point/Omega style, but they are not the 3/4 shape. The woods on the 20th Anniversary were Walnut top and back with a Walnut core and Vermilion accent laminates or Quilted Maple top and back with a Maple core and Purpleheart accent laminates. Anniversary basses were in 32" and 34" scale. They also have the "20th Anniversary" jewelry on the peghead. |

Here is a thread of interest with pictures on this topic. Such a beautiful Bass, I had the good fortune of playing one once in a Southern California music store in 2009. http://alembic.com/club/messages/411/22886.html?1133311684 |
