Special scratcher for a special callmaker

I was asked by Herb Hornstra to make him a scratchbox.  He didn't specify what he wanted so I began tinkering and I came up with this.  The soundboard is Honduran mahogany and the striker is African mahogany.  The body is actually pine that I treated the way I do my 'hooch boxes'.   Sounds great to my ears.  I think I'm gonna make another for myself.  I hope Herb is pleased.  Thanks for looking.

I think the bark on that is awesome Allen . Can I put an order in for one now?

KentuckyHeadhunter

Thanks Kelvin, Al, and Dfxhunter.  Herb loved his call and complimented me on not only the looks but the sound.  It was a very nice letter.  I am not taking orders on these at the moment but I confess I made three more and still tinkering between orders.  I appreciate all the kind compliments.
