And now I got to get one. Anyone know the price range of one of his long boxes and how to get in contact with him. Is there a waiting list.
I know his fiddle box is $175
Here's his contact info

Thanks for posting! He knows a thing or two about long boxes!
Marlin makes one incredible call. His reputation is second to none!
Hands down Marlin makes one of THE very best boat paddle/longboxes you'll ever pick up and carry. Marlin has developed a design that is totally unique which produces some of the very best authentic hens sounds I have ever heard. I HIGHLY recommend anyone if you have the money to invest in one of his long boxes and also go with one of the deeper toned calls--it'll be some of the best $ spent.
I just spoke with him on the phone. He is a very cool man. Talked turkey with him for a little while.
In case anyone is wondering.....waiting list is about 6 months right now.
200 for a long box
175 short box and trumpet.
6 months isn't too bad, I suggest you hop on his list...it'll only get longer as fall approaches and he starts building more calls for NWTF convention and spring orders.
