Title: Glass/crystal recommendations?
Post by: TonyTurk on May 27, 2021, 02:55:40 PM
Hi all.  If you were choosing two glass or crystal pots - one a high-pitched call, and one with a more mellow, medium tone - what would you choose? 

I recently got a little bonus at work and am looking to spend some of it on new calls!

Clay Townsend and Buster Halford can hook you up!

Mark Cornelius makes a good one too.  I have a glass from him, 2 glass from Clay Townsend, and one glass on the way from Mr. Halford.  They do crystal too I'm sure.

Buster is making a Grenadillo crystal over slate pot that is one of the better ones I have run in awhile. His glass over slates are just as good and not as high pitched, but with the right striker you can make most of the calls sound like you want them to from high pitch to more of a mellow sound.

Clay Townsend makes a really good Glass over slate also. I have 3 of them.

In addition to the builders mentioned above I would add David Halloran. His Crystal and glass calls have caused the death of many a gobbler!

Buster Halford crystal or glass over slate is a deadly combo. Osage,  Hormigo or Granadillo are good choices of wood as mentioned.

I love my Buster Halford Glass over slate in Osage. Get his two-sider, it gives some of the best tree talk you'll hear.
