Any other model with a body like the Super Dove?

A few questions - thanks:

 

1) Is there any other model with the body specs of the SD? If not identical, any with the same depth spec?

 

2) In my brief and uneducated research of current jumbo models, it seems they all have the same neck (nut) width - I think it's 1.725 - the only neck variation being shape (C or V etc). Is that right?

 

Thanks again!

The J200 would be about the same except for the cutaway.. I think the Super Dove is the Only 17 inch wide Jumbo cutaway acoustic as well at this time.. as for the neck.. they are I would guess the same ..

The Super Dove is MUCH thinner than the 200. Its really the only one. If you like it, why are you looking for something else? Get a Super Dove!

I'm sure they're still building plenty with 1.75" neck width. Keep in mind that about 1/3 of the guitars they build aren't standard production models, so there's a lot of variation that doesn't show up when reading the specs on the website.

P.S. If you want something along the lines of a shallow J-200 with a cutaway and a 1.75" neck, or whatever, get a quote on one. This sort of "custom" isn't usually priced significantly higher than if it were a standard production model -- it's no extra work for them to build it your way.
