Just out of curiosity how wide are the fretboards on Nechville banjos at the nut?  they dont really specify they look wider and radiused

Give them a call, they are very helpful and friendly.

Mine is standard. I think most builders do wide necks as custom jobs.

I agree entirely !  I've been to Nechville a few times in the past couple months and Tom just goes out of his way to do anything he can to help. What a great guy and a great bunch of people there !

I have a non radiused fretboard.    It is not a narrow neck.  but it is not extra wide either.

Jeff, nut width standard is 1 1/4".   But we make them wider or narrower upon request.

 My Classic has a flat, non-radius neck and as Al Price says, it is 1 1/4 inches at the nut.

1.288 and 1.319 on those I have.

Thanks for the info.

My NUVO is 1 1/2" at the nut.  Its slightly wider (I think) than the standard nuts since the NUVO has all five strings going straight up the neck to the peg head.
