The nut is actually 44mm (1.73").

I'm very happy, and impressed, with the T30HGc. It might sound more like Scot's recording if I put a Tonewood Amp on it (and he was playing it) but it is a wonderful sounding instrument, on top of being a harp guitar!

The mahogany top lacks nothing in crispness and treble response -- I don't think a spruce lover could be disappointed -- but it also works very well with those deep bass notes. I may try EB Aluminum Bronze strings on it next, it's still a bit treble/mid heavy for my ear, but I love the bass!

My sharping levers will be here this week so now I've got to think seriously about installing them. Won't know until I actually have them whether there will be room for one on the highest bass string...so don't know whether I'm going to fit all 6 or just go for 3 or 4.
