Are their any opinions re the M1 Baggs pickup?
Also, I am building an OM and have already slotted it for 12 frett. I am wondering. I also have a set of plans for an OOO and it is a bit wider at the nut. Any problems using wider nut and fretboard with my OM?

Bob,

I see no reason that you could not use the wider nut on your om. Classical guitars are about the same size, and they have and even wider nut than your 000 calls for. So I say go for it.

You can use any nut width you like on any guitar. The proviso of course is that the fretboard taper matches the line from nut to saddle. Use the nut width that your happy playing
