I would like to size the neck down a bit. I spoke with Susan about this. I would like to narrow the neck at the nut to the 1.65 and taper it like a Stanley Clark bass. I know you need more info. Please call me at your nearest convenience. I would also like to discuss the color of the mahogany back. Can this be darkened a little? I would like it darker if possible so that the back isn't too far off from the color of the walnut front. The maple neck color is fine as is.

Hi Terry; I'm assuming from your post in the Build Record section that you've discussed this with Susan and that your "disregard" post here is just to avoid any future confusion. If not, and given your statement that Susan says the neck is in the build process, then if you're canceling a neck size change, you should probably call.

Dave, I started over with a deluxe MK bass. It has a different neck size. I talked to Susan about this and I believe we are all on the same page.
Thanks for you concern, I appreciate that.
The message posted on August 31st. was about the 1st bass being built and it was a MK standard. There is a new quote and we are moving forward with the MK deluxe model. Thanks
