I don't want this to be misinterpreted that I am anti Rainsong. Quite the contrary love their offering.
You know, I have small hands and this is the first guitar that I have been able to grab the low E string with my thumb! Also, I think with practice, one really can adapt. I go from my classical guitar with a 49.5mm nut width to my Shorty with no effort now.

You never know, at some point, Rainsong may offer the N1 with a truss rod.
