If helpful, I'll ad that I gravitate, in terms of comfort and string spacing, to my Gibson J35 and my CE0-7 -- A little more so than my 000-15 but I adore the 15's tone. All three of these I like greatly in terms of tone.

I'm concerned about string spacing but have considered the Savoy and the CH-Om...Can anyone comment on the spacing relative to that which I've referenced above?

Thanks much!

Most CF look to be narrow-ish in this area. How does the Savoy compare?

Thanks!
Not sure how I missed this.

Rainsong and Blackbird use the 1-3/4" nut 2-3/16" saddle spacing combo used on all Taylor models, as well as Martins with the PA necks, and most Collings models. Composite Acoustics and Journey also have 1-3/4" nut width, but they opted for the 2-1/4" saddle spacing.
