I'd go with that assessment, especially on the "darker" tone; my thicker top WB sounds darker than the MG WB, and thick topped 381 sounds even darker. They all sound cool though!

Kenny, I retract my earlier statement; my thick topped 381 is less likely to feed back than my WB. Not sure about the difference between the two WBs though-I still need to do a comparison between those two, and I don't have them both in the same place at the moment.

The inside of my AZ WB is exactly the same as yours, JDog.
