Hi Tom. I've seen posts mentioning it, but never seen it, or specs. What I recall is seeing the X10 on the Emerald website. If I recall correctly, it looked like a conventional guitar body, not like my X7. I love the X7, and would probably love an Emerald X10N if it was a short-scale, 00 body with the string spacing I'm looking for. Finding a used one would be great, but I suppose they didn't make many.
If I cannot find a standard model nylon CF guitar, I know I can order a modified Blackbird Lucky 13, paying an upcharge for the wider nut and bridge.
The upside of the custom L13 is I know I like the body size, the scale, the tone, neck shape, fretboard radius, and non-slotted headstock. I would just increase string spacing a bit for the nylon, and fingerstyle. The downsides are cost and build time.
