About 42mm....that would be like my Blueridge BR60, which has a 1 11/16 nut AND the strings are placed inwards too, like, it's the narrowest nut I ever played and it's the reason I want to go E20d or E8d.
The Eastman E20D is 1.75 and plays very well. Neck is indeed chunky no issue for me. This guitar by the way is a dream guitar. Bought a 2015 D28 but could not get used to the sound. Went back to the store and played the E20D and i was struck by sound lightning. Swapped the D28.... the new one however i now have is much better to my ears (re-imagened)
