I like them all... what makes these trumpets is how good his trumpets sound and plays ...IMO
That's a special piece of bocote. They all look killer, Greg, and I guarantee they're full blown turkey.

Great calls Greg
Phenomenal calls Greg....
All are fantastic looking calls.
There's something about that mac ebony! Honestly they all look awesome, and since I have two of Greg's trumpets I can pretty much guess they sound awesome.

Thanks everyone....I will say that it is probably harder to find Macassar like the one shown than any of the other blanks. That piece of Macassar was provided to me for this build, wish I had a pile of it.
They all are really nice , bacote jump at me
That is a mighty fine flock of turkey killers! That mac ebony is really sweet looking!
WOW! That Bocote is awesome
All look great, you did a wonderful job.
Especially love the Becote. Nice flocks of turkeys.
Those are all very sharp Greg.
Nice looking batch of calls Greg

Thanks Greg, good to hear this.
Great work Greg, beautiful group of calls there!
Very nice Greg! I'm especially a fan of your Osage, but agree with the others that the mac and bocote are something special!

I am a fan of Osage too, plays great and just sounds right.
Gorgeous Greg!
They all look purdy Greg. Yup a few there really jump out.
Great looking calls for sure.
I just received the Bocote and I don't think you could find a better piece of wood. Phenomenal to say the least and the playability can't be any better. Greg's yelpers are one of the best out there!
I just opened the box with the Mac Ebony in it. To me it's the nicest Mac Ebony I've seen. She runs beautifully. I brought my Bois de Rose trumpet from Greg with me to compare them. To say I'm pleased is an understatement!

Hey Seth, yeah Kingwood is great.....looks beautiful, turns nice, and sounds awesome.
I was lucky enough to be the recipient of the ironwood. Let me tell you, it plays as great as it looks. Thanks, Greg!
