All the talk of late about old guy shoulders and fat fingers led me to the parts drawer where I pulled out a spare Martin bone nut with a hair under inch and 1/2 string spacing, and reshaped it to the size and shape of the '63's original nut, with it's aggravating inch and 3/8 spread. Just a rough fix for now, but I was so pleasantly surprised to have it work just fine with noticeable improved hand comfort. I'll get my luthier to craft a permanent replacement with set up. Surprisingly, plenty of room for the two E strings. A good move for you alte kakers who are suffering with your beloved old narrow spaced Guilds.
