[QUOTE="all_fakes, post: 4551008, member: 55"]Same for me; I like the width of the standard steel-string neck. I do sometimes like the nylon-string sound though, and steel strings are rough on my fingernails - I use fingerpicks on steel-strings, but would rather have the more direct contact of playing without picks. Martin did make and may still make a guitar with steel-string neck width, 12-fret neck, and designed for nylon strings; I forget the model number - it was favored by Peter Yarrow and Paul Stookey of Peter Paul and Mary, I believe. Glad yours sounds good![/QUOTE]
