Ive sort of put off building and selling any calls for awhile, due to my job and family stuff, but I put these together today from pieces that I had laying on my bench. These calls/barrels/ parts, are some that I didnt offer for sale before( Ive had a few guys want some) because I was not happy with the shape or size, finish or whatever, so they just sit there. Plus, I have still not recovered my wood Ive had on order and was lost in the mail, which included a bunch of toneboard wood to finish them up anyways.
Im cleaning my workbench, and had the barrels and some odd toneboards laying there, so I assembled these calls thinking I might as well try to get something for them. Some of the woods dont match quite well, but its all I had made up. These are all pretty basic plain -jane calls.
All of these calls are $20.00 each +2.00 to ship first class. If you want priority mail it will be 5.00. EDIT: Coco and black locust call is 15 bucks+ shipping.
Id like to make these sales Paypal only.
Shoot me a PM if your interested.
Thanks,
Mark

All calls have a sealed, oil and wax finish inside and out. All calls have MT2 taper fitted toneboards.
Up first..a little cocobolo and black locust call. This call is smaller than I usually make. This one tuned out real high pitched, like a young crow. The black locust toneboards are not very exciting to look at and dont really go well with the coco but it looks ok. The coco barrel is heavy and dark. Again, this is a small call.

Looking forward to it. My old Faulk's has finally given out after 25+ years. It's now gracing the mantle over my fireplace.

I still use my Faulks C-50! Great call imo.
