❌SOLD❌ Bozo Podunavac Bell Western 12 String Guitar, 1989

On October 26, 2017 /

Today we have a very rare treat, something that I have heard on recordings, perhaps seen on stage, but never up close. This is a Bozo Podunavic Bell Western 12-string, built in the USA.

Bozo guitars, built by Bozo Podunavac in California or later Florida, are not at all common, but were used by a number of highly influential guitarists. The notable player for me was Leo Kottke, whose incredible skill with the 12-string still astounds all of us here – regardless of how fast and hard he’s playing, every note is clear, clean and audible.
