Title: Two for me...
Post by: Gobblerstopper on March 25, 2012, 03:47:10 PM
Since I seldom put any calls together for my own vest, I figured this would be a good year to do so.  I've gotten back into making more aluminum calls and started using more bronze glass.  I love the aluminum with the carbon striker and the bronze glass is taking the place of a crystal call that I turned in 2005 and have brought in a little over 100 birds with since then.  Didn't think I would find a call to replace it, but this one is getting its first shot in Florida next weekend.

Both pots are yellowheart and the aluminum has a yellowheart/carbon striker.  Both strikers have a CA finish on them.

The aluminum carrys some good rasp without being very high pitch.  The bronze glass over yellowheart is one of the better sounding calls I think I have put together.  It has a pretty high front end and ends with a little bit of rasp with the yellowheart striker.  More rasp with a purpleheart striker and less rasp with a persimmon striker.  The yellowheart seems to hit just about the middle of the other two.

Very sharp looking calls. I like the tint of the bronzed glass, it really looks good with the yellowheart.

THanks for the compliments. Hopefully they will be talking to some gobblers in 4 days.

I too like the looks of the bronze glass.  I am going to paint the inside of the next yellowheart pot black. With the tracks and signature on the soundboard and the bronze glass. That will make a sharp looking call.
