golem Posted December 23, 2021 Posted December 23, 2021 I'm a few hours away and have been staring at that Mesa Mark 1 RI you are selling but the Marshall 4X10 is also very appealing. You've got great taste!

You've got great taste! The 4x10 is sold. The Mark I is still available. I just listed it on Sunday but it has a lot of interest so far. It's really hard to let some of this go as all my gear is effing killer. But I only want to keep the stuff I play all the time.
mtn cub Posted December 23, 2021 Posted December 23, 2021 Hello, Can you give me an idea of the neck profile on this Newport? Do you happen to have thickness measurements at the 1st and at the 12th frets? Is the nut width a full 1 11/16"? Is the neck nice and straight with zero fret or neck issues? Thanks for the information. I have a real nice/played natural Newport with Seth Lovers and would imagine that the p90's would also sound great, although quite different.... Your thoughts on this would be appreciated. Tim.
texwest Posted December 24, 2021 Author Posted December 24, 2021 Some measurements I took a few years ago. 6 lbs 10 oz Nut width is 1.692 1st fret 1.726 wide .853 thick 5th fret 1.863 - .875 12th fret 2.056 - .912 I've measured several Hamer necks and the width measurements are incredibly consistent on the guitars I have owned. I measured another friends Newport and his neck was exactly like mine on width. The neck is very straight and there is hardly any fret wear at all.
