I want to give a shout out to Lyle at houndstooth. I had asked on here about different strikers to run on his ceramic. I explained it would not roll over on the yelps and was overly high pitched no matter what striker I used or hand position I used. I recieved a pm from Lyle shortly afterward. After talking a bit he asked me to send it back so he could check it out. I talked to him a bit on the phone. Fast forward to today and I got in touch with him. He said that the call was definitely off and should not have been shipped. He said he keeps the culls to pop the ceramics out to reuse. The call arrived in the mail and it was a night and day difference between the 2. It is going in my vest and sounds awsome with a handful of different strikers. Just posting this to give Lyle props for his calls and his going up and beyond to take care of a customer long after the sale. I even ordered a few of his mouth calls to try out. Give Lyle a call. He stands by his calls and will treat you right.
Yep, Lyle is a good guy who makes killer calls. I haven't ran one of his friction calls but I'm sure they're top notch like his mouth calls.
Told you that thing kills, I talked to him last week got some more mouth calls come. Agree Lyle is a great guy to deal with
Lyle is a great person with some really really good calls.
I wouldn't sell my aluminum I got from him for $500,that call has it all..I like the ceramic a lot as well.
Glad your happy with it! Pretty sure the wrong call got shipped.. But I appreciate the comments and the buisness thanks!- LG
Lyle is great people and makes great calls. That ceramic is a killer
I had a great visit with Lyle at the convention. I brought home a slate and my son a crystal and we are very happy with both of them. After I left I was wishing I had brought home a glass also. His All Pro 3 was also my favorite diaphragm I picked up at the convention.
