Something about Snakewood, just seems to have a little extra turkey in it.Nice looking call. My experience with Snakewood is a little different. It doesn't seem to have any special tonal quality, is very prone to cracking and the pattern and figure fades over time..instead of improving like say Osage or Olivewood, it goes the other direction.. Just one man's observations.

I love my Snakewood horn, and to me it is unique/special, but I have others that are great in their own way too.

I have some 30 year old trumpets that have improved... and some 5 year old Snakewood calls that have almost bled out ..it's a strange phenomenon of chemistry, and this oxidation, weathering process..
