Larger neck size on Parlors?

I've had a gloss parlor for about two years now and I love it.  Yesterday I tried out a brand new P-09 and immediately noticed the neck was  deeper than mine, and also seemed slightly wider.  Has Larrivee tweaked the specs?

The first 500 (satin) parlors had 1-11/16 wide nuts instead of 1-3/4 (wider) since then, if I recall correctly.

The super-parlor (special run for FQMS) that I have seems to have a thicker neck than the other parlors though. So I'd agree there is some variation out there.

As Randy said, there is bound to be slight variations in hand built guitars. 

My L and Om were both 'born' in January 2004,  only 52 numbers apart,  both part of that blackwood run.

When I change guitars and use the same shubb capo,  I need to adjust about 3/4 turn on the tension screw
to get the same 'no buzz' capoing.  (is that a word?)

No worries and I can not detect the difference when playing.

But I think he meant among different runs of guitars.  Given that necks are cut by CNC machine, all necks should be the same unless the profile in the computer is changed.  Maybe it was.
