Hi Chris,
Paul Brett 12 string guitar by the Vintage brand (John Hornby Skewes). I haven't tried one, or even seen one, but a friend of mine who is the editor of a well known magazine has just had one in for review and was very impressed. He called me to tell me how good it is.
Shine On
Michael.

Thanks Michael, I have heard good things about these guitars but no one seems to know the width of the fingerboard at the nut.

According to the Music Radar reviews the 12 string has a 48mm nut and the 6 string 46mm.

My pal Rob Armstrong designed the "Vintage" Gordon Giltrap signature model, and said the results were pretty amazing, considering that they reverse-engineered an existing guitar.
They made two copies from an existing guitar without the benefit of the original former as Rob's workshop burned down a few years ago and all his old stuff was lost .
The 12 string looks really nice anyway.
