I don’t think any composite builder makes that nut size as a standard, but Emerald certainly will do it as a custom option. They will do pretty-much whatever your heart may desire...at a price, of course. They are extremely accommodating.

Eyesore;

Me too. I'm a nylon fanatic and I don't like the traditional 2" nut and I don't like the traditional steel string nut width--I like 1 7/8." The only CF maker that I know of that will make you the width of your dreams, is Emerald.

You might want to make an inquiry at the Emerald site, and see what it would take to make your guitar.

The Leviora is a little wider than most at 46 mm.
