Default Furch narrow nut width / similar brands to Furch

I absolutely love Furch guitars. I don't know of any other brand that produces the same quality for the price. My only issue is their wide neck. I find that I'm having work a little harder to play them due to the wider spacing. I know they offer a 43mm nut width option, I am just a little hesitant to order one as I'm worried the 43mm might be too narrow. I find around 44mm or 1.732" is about perfect for me. My current Furch is their standard 45mm, however, i checked the nut width and it measures around 1.79" which i personally find a little too wide.

If anyone has played or owned a Furch with a 43mm nut, did you find it a little too narrow?

Are there similar brands to Furch that offer the same quality at the price point with a slightly smaller nut?

I had to wait an extra few months for a 43 mm nut width on my Furch Yellow and just love it.

To me it feels just slightly wider than an Ovation neck width and is what I consider as absolutely perfect — for me, obviously.

No regrets whatsoever (although I suppose it might affect resale-ability, if I were ever to go that route).
