An earlier build from Lynn Dudenbostel that’s had a few decades to open up—and open up, it has. This 000-45 (long scale) was built in 1996 with Brazilian Rosewood body and Adirondack Spruce on top, plus a well executed Abalone 45-style appointment package and 1 13/16” nut spacing. It’s a very comfortable fingerstyle guitar, and with the longscale setup it handles flatpickiing well to boot. It’s been well cared for and looks great for its age, and is more than ready for action. Plus this beauty comes wrapped up in a Calton flight case for maximum safety on those rare moments you won’t be playing it.

A 45-style guitar from Lynn Dudenbostel is high royalty. What an exquisite build from a world renowned maker. Power and beauty in equal portions! 
I find this one intriguing. The combination of long scale and 12 frets to the body creates a special kind of crispness mixed with warmth. I love the vintage-style chunky neck carve and wider nut. | Scale Length | 25.4 in |
