I can't do it until June but I would like to get myself a red slate call but have not seen one (I own a black and have a green on the way so why not red?) and I would like to see how different colors and materials look with red slate so if those of you that have them would post pictures and tell me what the wood/material used is I would appreciate it. Thank you all. Also glass or slate for a sound board?

                                                                                       P.S. my GF says ya'll are turning me into a junkie.

Be careful brother.....this is a dangerous road you're going down!

Here's a green and red together......the red is over a slate soundboard in a gaboon ebony pot.
The black gaboon ebony and and the red looks awesome!

Red is harder than green slate.....you can feel it when you play it, and it will play a higher pitched yelp....a little bit cleaner yelp than green as well.

That red against the Gaboon Ebony man that just pops! You just need to set up your red slate, green slate and your ceramic it will look like a traffic signal! For turkeys! :z-guntootsmiley:

Thank you for the picture, nice looking call. What does the Mineral stained treatment do for it?
