Don't turn too many Osage Orange trumpets, underappreciated wood for sure. I think they look, sound, & run fantastic.

Very nice Greg! The best thing about Osage is how it looks when it ages

Glad that Osage horn worked out for you, hard to believe that was 2 years ago, man time flies. I remember that trumpet too as I only turned a few of them.
I've always heard osage was one of the best. I have several pot calls made from osage.

Like Terry said, it's darkened since then and is even better looking.

Thanks Tony...Through the years I have built fewer Osage trumpets than some other species, but I certainly appreciate the wood and have always been happy with the results. I do remember some of my shop visits with Billy Buice, on several occasions he told me Osage was a favorite of his, can't argue with that opinion....
Nice one Greg I am a huge fan of Osage.
Very nice trumpet. I have an Osage trumpet and it has been the demise of several long beards.
