Marlin Watkins
« on: February 16, 2019, 04:42:15 PM »
Hey guys ,   Iam posting this for Marlin.   Marlin had a experimental box call in Nashville.  He took the call down for some different people to run.  Somehow the call got mixed up with some calls that got sold.  Marlin would like to get the call back if possible. The call was a fiddle box yellow poplar and macassar..

That's good.
Any insight as to what made it experimental?

Iam not real sure.  My guess is  some type of measurement or radius he was messing with.  Hard to tell.Marlin being an engineer Iam sure  he is always trying to figure new things out to make something better.

His plans are to run the new box this spring during turkey season and experiment with the box ... That's what he said ....Few people got to see and run the box at Nashville ...

I would have hated to have bought it and then return it,but I know whoever it was would be treated right.

  It wasn't sold it was just misplace in the wrong bag and they found it ...
