Got my birthday present in that my girlfriend bought for me today, great looking Tulipwood with Brass striking surface. First brass call I have had, I like the way it sounds. Edit: Sounfile under the pictures.

The call came with this persimmon striker and I picked up his waterproof striker as well.

Several people have asked me for a soundfile so here it is. I hate doing soundfiles because I don't feel I am a very good player. I started with the Persimmon Wood Striker that came with the call, then went to the Waterproof Striker then used one of Jeff's (JHL) Frogwood Strikers.

It will cost you a few dozen strikers and a no touch contract but sure, why not?

Thank you. My birthday was Jan. 11 but had to wait for him to get the wood in and all. It was worth the wait. I took that rainproof striker and an old Mad Super Crystal call and held the tip of the striker and the whole call under running water and it played great.

noisy box call that seems to sound like a flock of juvenile hens pecking their way through a wheat field

That's one awesome girlfriend to get you a gift like that. That tulipwood is breathtaking and I am sure the sound is great. I've never been disappointed in anything from John.

It sounds great to me, John was surprised because normally this size pot does not sound good with brass but this one wound up sounding very good and unlike most pots that sound better at the edge this one sound better the closer you get to the center. (Sounds real good at the edges as well.)
