I was curious if the crossovers offered anything as sort of a middle ground as far as tone and playability is concerned, and if there were models others would recommend. I only mentioned the Taylors because I see they make essentially a nylon guitar on a steel string body.
I understand now, thanks for the clarification. The Cordoba crossovers are an excellent instrument with nice sound. The nut width of (48mm) and radius fretboard might nust help in your transistion. With your budget could go to a Kenny Hill.

Some steel string acoustics have a 1-13/16, Eastman parlor and 00 size 12 fret which is similar in size to a classical guitar size. If your goal is to play steel string that would be a good transitional instrument
