Yes, yes, yes, Eric Clapton can play anything with strings and a neck. I read the poster's thread question as what is more comfortable. For me for three reasons I prefer the 1 11/16 nut width and narrower fret boards. First, I thumb over the top on some patterns with a smaller left hand and want to stay clean on the high E string at the bottom as I do so. Second, I cover multiple strings on some chord patterns with one finger..easier when strings are closer.
Third, I feel that I can flat pick faster with shorter distances between strings. Physics.
