Subject: RE: Tech: Wider guitar neck
The Seagull Cedar Folk is a really nice guitar with a wider neck width. (45mm I think)

This Recording King guitar ROS6 has a 46mm neck width. I have this guitar. It's got a really good tone:

However, most "wide" neck widths are still a fair bit shorter than the 50mm of classical guitars. This Harley Benton, from Thomann, at 48mm wide, is the widest steel string on the market currently as far as I'm aware. It gets very good reviews and is a bargain at about £165 new:
