Not mine...My S6 Original has the exact same 1.75" nut width as my Larrivée and Martin 1.75" nuts according to my calipers. I also had an S6 Coastline Spruce with the same nut width.

Larry ... I totally agree that the string spacing is the same on a Seagull as on most any other 1.75 inch nut guitar and only the actual width of the nut and fingerboard are wider on a Seagull.
Not sure how some folks are measuring their Seagulls and getting a 1.75 inch nut width, but I trust that they are doing it accurately and that they know what is true for their particular guitars. All of the three different Seagull dreadnoughts I've owned have had a 1.8 inch (46mm as you say) nut width. Certainly nut width (actual width of the fingerboard at the nut) and string spacing (distance between the "E" strings) are two different things and this may be confusing the issue. Finally, I am one who does indeed have a problem with pushing the top "E" string over the edge unintentionally and the slight extra real estate on my Seagull is appreciated for that reason, even though the space between the strings themselves is no greater than on my 1.75 inch nut Martin.
