I do the same thing, but with a different variation. Also with a Ghost Label '59 M20 (lightning striking twice, LOL), I string with 12-53's, tune down to DADGAD, and capo at second fret. Gets me the 1 & 3/4 nut width AND a 12-fretter! Bonus: DADGAD in the mo-betta singing key (for me) of E. If playing in regular tuning, I also string with 11's - a beautiful match for the M20.

Peace,

Ah, now why didn't I think of that. My Hoboken M-20 is a neat guitar, but the width at the neck takes some getting used to. Thanks guys for the suggestion here.
