RobF -> RE: fretboard width sizes on flamenco guitars (Jul. 6 2023 13:25:53) 52mm -1/+2 at the nut with ~10mm taper to the 12th (ie 62mm).

Morante -> RE: fretboard width sizes on flamenco guitars (Jul. 6 2023 16:02:14) Hi Rob. My guitar is 55 at the nut and 65 at the 12th[;)]

RobF -> RE: fretboard width sizes on flamenco guitars (Jul. 6 2023 16:13:29) Well, at least he got the taper right! [:D] Damn, now I have to get out my measuring tools…. Old Conde: 53/64 Old Ramirez: 53.6/63.1 Old Contreras: 51.8/64 Tezanos/Perez/Barnabé: 51.8/62 Clearly, none of these guys read the Foro… P.S. a quick scan of the dimensions in the Ulrick Collection of Fine Spanish Guitars book shows nobody else seemed to have read the Foro either. I was surprised how many are listed at less than 51mm at the nut. But nowadays I think the convention tends towards 52mm.
