This is what I've been working on this week.  I made a Cocuswood call with African Blackwood trim, a Buffalo horn mouthpiece with a threaded brass tip. The lip stop is Cocuswood with a woodwind cork lining to firmly seat the stop.

Wow, that is different and VERY sharp looking. How does she play?

Top shelf work, and about the only thing rarer than Cocuswood would be Unicorn Horn.

I really like the tone on this one.  I used instrument grade Cocuswood on this call.  This one is on the way to the call competition so I hope "she" does well.

Thank you sir.  I've got a small stash of Cocuswood.  I'll send you a call blank of it if you like.  What length and diameter do you need?

That Trumpet is amazing Seth, absolutely beautiful work and I know it will do well in the competition.  Always wanted to make a Trumpet from Cocuswood, but never found any in my search!
