@Silverstrings, McCafferty fretboards are 1-1/2 inches wide. That is a pretty standard size. My Blue Lion and Probst dulcimers also have 1-1/2" wide fretboards.
Terry now sells his dulcimers with notches in the bridge and nut so that the strings can be set pretty widely apart or brought in closer. I can't tell you the exact distances since I have a custom version, but I'm sure Terry would answer these questions.
