    Cool haha, unfortunately there are not too many lefty's in Aus to pickup, otherwise it could be a nice platform to start from.
    Was there a problem with the neck, or did you change the neck because as you said "too narrow" for your liking?

    Thanks for explaining the mini hb's.

    Yeah, the more I played it, the more it just didn't feel right. Mainly to narrow at the first 3 frets. I remeasured the nut width today and it was actually a smidge under 42mm. (41.72mm to be exact!)
    Which was probably my own fault because I stripped the original finish and must have sanded more down than I should have.

    Maybe I'll cut a new nut for it and use it for a 4-string Cigar Box Guitar!
