naturalness in use of English
Is it natural for a native speaker of this language to produce this sentence?
He is undoubtedly good enough a guitarist to have made a professional career
If not, what would it be the most similar example ?

I think it is a natural enough sentence. How the sentiment is expressed would, of course, depend on the circumstances. To express that less formally you might say, "He could have been a pro. He's that good!" The sentence in question could be considered an elliptical sentence, thusly: "He is undoubtedly good enough a guitarist to have made a professional career (out of playing the guitar)."

He is undoubtedly good enough a guitarist to have made it his career.
How about this?
