SS Short Boxes for sale

No longer taking special orders, but still making calls with woods that are working well at that particular time. Got a few listed on our site ready to go if anyone is interested in one, or just to take a look, check them out here.

Very good price on a great checkered call and great job on the pictures. I agree wholeheartedly on the special orders, I'm planning on ending that also.

 Appreciate it Mike!! The problem as I'm sure you already know is one batch of wood will make killer calls, and then you order more and it bites! LOL  Then you're in the position to have to try to make a call work from that wood, or spend more money chancing another order will be good. Takes all the fun out of it, and turns it into stress!  :character0029:

How would you describe its sound? I fell in love with the two limba boxes, the bloodwood lid and the purpleheart lid. And I'm glad to see y'all doing away with special orders. I mention that over and over when people ask about wood combinations, which is, ASK THE MAKER. Y'all are the only ones who know what you have and which one has the right grain for what you do. I tell this story over and over but Jeff McKamey refused to make me the box I asked for because the wood wasn't right. As someone who doesn't make them but is astounded by the people who do, I really really appreciate that!

One of the things I like so much about this site is shown here, makers supporting makers and complimenting each others works instead of competing against each other. Truly some special makers and people make up this site.
