I'd never seen a Dudenbostel mandolin until I was lucky enough to get my hands on this one. Incredible tone, great workmanship. I think Lynn really captured the vintage Gibson look, feel, and, most importantly, tone

Vintage Fern like back
Tasty flowerpot
Hand engraved tailpiece cover. Anybody else want to post their Dude?
Which number is this one Phil?
It's number #22. By the way Grandmainger, thanks for the instructions on posting pictures on the Cafe. I couldn't have done it without your help
I had #22 visit me for a coupla weeks awhile back, nice mandolin.
It's a Loar with a touch of class added to it.
Worth every penny if pennies could buy it.
The color and shading look really good on that one!
I just saw a Handmade Music show on tv that has him making a mando. Great show.
hey Phil, that is one mighty fine looking mandolin. Thanks for sharing pictures of it. I played it once when it was new, and Mike Stangland had just taken delivery form Lynn. It souded killer then, and I bet it is scary now.
A wrong note played timidly is a wrong note. A wrong note played with authority is an interpretation.
I would like to see some pics of different Dudes too. Does anyone have any they can share?

Okay, I am going to attemp posting this.
This be my Monteleone Grand Artist. Never wanted anything more from a mando.
sorry if it doesn't work...

Okay, it worked and like everyone, here is a headstock pic.
All the best you mandoliners.

That's a nice "Monty," but I think he was asking for "Dudes," no? I once knew a dude named Monty...he played a Gibson.

Don't hate me because I know how to spell and punctuate!
I thought this topic just stated "post a picture of your mandolin"...? Just gettin the hang of this party. New to chat, new to Mando Cafe. "Dudes" look nice.
Seen the new Ellis mando's?

Monte, pass the puff please!

Big Joe,
Since you're here - Whats your take on the flowerpot?
Back last year there were threads about Gibson defending depiction. It seems that many of the beautiful mandolins posted on the board show the "Gibson" flowerpot, or reasonable fasimiles, but haven't heard anyone complain.
Has the issue been resolved?
I also agree that the Dude is a beautiful instrument.
That's F5Joe, not Big Joe! However, Big Joe does play an F-5! A lot of confusion on this thread!!

It was BIG Joe, thanks. Sounds like you're the one who's confused. I was looking for his thoughts on the Flowerpot.
Lynn's newest, #32.
Another shot...
Beautiful back.
Please, lets clear up the confusion.
Big Joe is a good friend of mine.
I'm f5joe and I'm "big" too. Not as big as Big Joe but big enough.
f5joe has a Dude, Big Joe does not.
There, clear to me. Whew!

I believe Big Joe and Charlie just want to talk mandos and leave the legal talk to the lawyers and corporate. Gibson has and will defend their property rights. I understand that you can use a flower pot, just not "the Gibson flower pot".Originally Posted by (Peakbagr @ Nov. 25 2005, 10:46)
