I found myself a fairly rare acousti-fiddle

Samick Greg Bennet designs Blackbird. Picked it up locally comparably priced to the one other one ont he market right now.

Great sounding acoustic. I played a few acoustics at the 600 and less mark, and it's pretty similar in sound and playability to the SE angelus.

Not nearly as expensive.

Are the pics cheating me, or is the neck wider than on most other acoustics?
What's the full neck width at the nut, and string 1 to 6?
If wider, this would be interesting, cos I do not like narrow necks..
