Dudenbostel OM-42
Here's a kinda' compressed history of an OM-42 in Carpathian/Brazilian that Lynn is starting to put under finish. It's the "twin" of the 12 fret D-42 that he built for me a couple of years ago. That thread is in here somewhere, if you're curious.
For my taste, he's a top 3 in the world of Martin vintage style builders, but he's a good friend as well, so maybe I'm a bit prejudiced.  But some others here may weigh in as well... In any case, I hope you enjoy the pics. I'll do one more round after this if you want. Last edited by JCM615; 11-03-2023 at 10:42 PM. Reason: Inability to write simple sentences

Someone posted this picture several years ago, I think it is
about the coolest headstock ever:  I live just a few hours from his shop, but I guess luthiers would never get any work done if guitar fan boys were lined up at their shop doors in the morning... -Mike

Beautiful guitar!
I have a rosewood Dudenbostel.......pegwinder.  I don't know if he still makes these, but they are very cool, and work extremely well.

It's going to be a great beauty, I'm sure.
Just wanted to say years ago I met Lynn who took the time to show me around his shop and talk about the mandolin he was working on that day. What a thoroughly nice, thoughtful man he is. It was a great pleasure to spend an hour with him, although I don't think I'll ever be able to own one of his instruments.

And, again, oh my, a Dudenbostel OM-42. There aren't and never will be better acoustic guitars.

Thank you, Paul! It's kind of a "negative twin", Braz trimmed in Koa vs Koa/Braz, but the same custom inlay pattern, Rodgers tuners, fingerboard from the same piece of ebony, both 42 style of course. Here's older brother...
