if you had to pick one DH box call to use which one would it be

Mac. Ebony over Walnut, I have two of them. They are the two best boxes I own.

2nd 100

I would say Macassar ebony over anything as Macassar is always a favorite( Voodoo wood ) of mine , but watching David kill em everywhere with the purple heart over cedar is going to make me tote mine this year !

Toss up between his purple heart over cedar and mac ebony over walnut.  Both are great.  Wish I could get my hands on both of those prior to his laser engraving days.  Just don't care for laser engraving on a "custom" box.  To each his own. 
Turkeys certainly don't seem to mind.

I have the mac ebony over walnut and am very pleased.  Wife ordered it with my name engraved for my birthday last year.

I would have to go different route , I would have his IPE / black limba longbox , it gives me more diversity in my options of calling birds .... this is if i could only have ONE ....

Beards and Hooks

Just from listening to soundfiles and watching videos I would say Macassar Ebony over Walnut. I have never heard any of his calls in person though.

Purple Heart and cedar is the most versatile box for me. It will make a wide range of calls. My favorite box for gobbler yelps but has a lot of hen to offer. I also have his walnut and butternut (2nd favorite) and the ebony and poplar.
