The difference between a $100. trumpet and a $500. trumpet is $400.

I know. Appreciation in future resale value.

She ain't real pretty, but in the hands of someone who knows how to run a yelper, she is extremely deadly. May have been exaggerating a bit when I compared it to my Buice, but I figured I'd help the man sell a few more. Deadly "hunting call" sure 'nuff though.

I agree. I have one that really sounds good. It’s definitely a great buy for someone who is interested in trying a trumpet.

Is it a good trumpet for someone that is new to trumpets or someone that knows how to run one? There is a difference.

No offense to that guy who makes affordable calls....but there's just something about taking a call into the woods that was made by a legend and a master of callmaking.  I think its worth the extra cash to get something you'll cherish and hand down.  Just my personal opinion.

I just bought one of his Tiger Stripe Maple calls. Heck for $25 bucks it seemed like a deal.   :)

Same one I have been looking at since late Spring of last year but have been to skeptical to order. Nice looking call if it looks like the picture.

Just received a walnut with bone mouthpiece from him yesterday. She yelps and clucks as good as the first one I bought. I could do without the linseed oil though. Again, these calls ain't purty, and definitely are not for you perfectionists, but turkey killers they are, at a ridiculous price. Good luck with them.
I don't think they look bad in the auction pictures, but that  may not hold true when in the hand. How about a picture and a soundfile please?

Hey bud, you need to get back on your medication. You should know by now not to ask me to post a pic, let alone a soundfile. You, of all people, should just buy the damm thing.
Sad thing is somebody stole 40 of my pills so I am not on them the way I should be. Yea I forgot who I was talking to. I think you should make the "Great Cheap Trumpet World Tour" so all we curious people can find out how they look and sound.

Good job on them, you can here you have trouble with the last, but for 20 bucks it sounds real good. I have to learn that kee-kee run on mine.
