Classic Guitar with 1 3/4" nut
Hey guys, was talking with a friend that's looking for a classic/nylon?string guitar with a small nut/neck. He said he knows of a small M&P shop that gets them in from Europe and they are a favorite with mariotchy [sp??] players. Thought if anybody knows of any available online or dealers/distributors.
Thx in advance.

I know Cordoba has their C3M Cadete model that is a smaller all the way around guitar. I believe it is a 3/4 size guitar, and has a 1.8" (just a hair over 1 3/4") nut width.
http://www.cordobaguitars.com/p/c3m-cadete-(3/4-size) I also believe that Ibanez makes one as well as Fender with narrow nut widths, but they will be electric/acoustic nylon strung.

Cordoba has a Fusion series with 1 3/4" necks. Ted at LA Guitar Sales (Tarpman, here on AGF) has them. Not sure if that's the brand you want, but these have the neck width you're looking for.

I would ask if he's ever played one? Bear in mind that classical string's gauges are inherently thicker, so playing a 1 3/4 nut with nylon strings is going to feel like there's less room than a 1 5/8 neck. It would be very cramped for someone with adult sized hands.....these smaller guitars are meant for children.

Apologies for the misinformation! Bfloyd is correct. Sorry about that.

Crossover...
I would suggest to go with a crossover sized neck (like Godin). As has been pointed out, nylon strings are thicker and it will probably feel cramped playing on a 1 3/4" with nylon. And BTW, it's "mariachi"
