This is a great list to look at. I have been looking at the Blueridge BR341, I have not had a chance to play one. I am very interested in an Eastman AC508, but it has only 1-3/4 nut width. I sent them a note asking if they would consider building one to 1-7/8... I will let you know... that is one very beautiful guitar.

Bumping my new favorite thread. Any new offerings since the last post?

I'm eyeballing Peppinos (cutaway desired), but I'm open to other suggestions.

I have a 2006 custom Northwood R80-OO that has a 1 7/8" nut width. It's a great guitar that I may be listing soon.

I have two great Taylors right now that have 1 and 7/8" nut widths: a W14ce and a Chris Proctor Signature Model. The W14ce was custom ordered that way.

Slowly, slowly, but surely - people will begin to realise the benefits of a wider neck !

I've had my Gibson F-25 since 1982 and before that I played a classical. I've known the benefits for a long time.

Wechter TO 8418, 8428, and 8442 are 1.875". Slot head, 12 fret, very nice guitars. I have the 8418 and it's excellent.

I got a Huss and Dalton 00 (rose/adi) with 1 7/8 that puts out an extraordinaire sound. You forget you're playing a small guitar. Comfy size, beautiful tremendous tone.
