A 1 3/4" nut is only 1/16" wider than a 1 11/16", which if the strings are evenly spaced, only adds about 1/64" to the open space on the outside of the high and low E strings. It feels a lot bigger than it is. The edge clearance up the neck is determined more by the bridge. Since the neck heel is always 2 3/16", the string spacing at the bridge should be 2 1/8, which translates to about 2 1/16 in the upper neck.
just put in the order through warmoth, hopefully everything will get here by my birthday in february and my obsession will be subdued!! temporarily anyway...
