Lonnie Gilbert Scratcher
« on: August 09, 2018, 05:25:41 PM »
Just got this new Lonnie Gilbert scratcher in the mail today and its a player!

Its wormy ambrosia maple and walnut with a butternut soundboard.

He send me some newly designed curved strikers he just started messing around with.

They really bring this call to life and are easy to play.

Looks real nice.

Looks like you caught that scratcher bug bad.

Yep I am sold, I played this one over the phone earlier for Mr Gilbert 5 minutes after opening it and he said you have run one of these a time or two inferring I have been using them a long time which I have only really been running one for a week now.

I got a lot to learn but this one sounds better than any box call I have (I have some good ones) and its got a lot of volume also.

I am definitely a member of the scratcher club now!

A buddy of mine had a few Gilbert scratchers. Pretty cool looking and they sounded good. We took some rounded edge strikers we had sitting nearby and ran the call than. It was fantastic.
