Carbon fiber soundboard?
« on: February 02, 2023, 04:25:28 PM »
Any of you guys tried one out, I see Buster, Clay and Lonzo are making them, I just wanted to know what the difference is with them over the other soundboards.

I can't give you details ... BUT if you purchase Lonzo crystal over carbon fiber you will see the difference ... it will play with any kind of striker ... Just an awesome pot call ... IMO    He told me it takes a lot of sanding and time to make those acrylic pots...

Putting together a walnut pot with Carbon fiber soundboard and crystal surface now. Hoping it sounds good. Not that I think it will sound as good as the above mentioned.

I purchased one from Lonzo while at Unicoi this past January. I have not taken the time to run it much but like all his other calls it is a player.
