I have heard that about the teak before but have only re chalked mine once, when I got it in the mail box it was close to 95 degrees and I brought it in the a nice air conditioned 70 degrees and it wouldn't play any! I wiped the rails down and re chalked, it still singing a year later!

You'll have to re-chalk that teak more often for a while, until it cures out because it's oily.  Aside from that, it's a killer call.

That's generally true but, if that's the teak I think it is, it's old and pretty dry. You may not have to do that with that particular call.
Richard scores the underside of the lid on mostly all of his calls. What I like to do is take a new toothbrush and brush the grooves out before I rechalk. Not entirely necessary but you will get all of the old chalk out before you rechalk...

Good advice.  I'll try that.

That's a beauty. Matt and Richard both build a great caller.

I have never talked to Richard before but everyone says he is a nice guy. I obviously have talked to Matt and he is a too notch man. Definitely getting another call from him.

rakkin, Richard's shop is very close to you if you're still at Campbell.  I'm guessing you'd enjoy that visit.

rakkin6

Yeah I am still at Fort Campbell. Where is he located

He is moving to Arkansas sometime if not already.
