It is as good as his wood if not better. You won't be disappointed.

 I ran one at his shop a few years ago. Fine sounding call!  :you_rock: As RiverClark said, give him a call. Great guy to talk to.

I have his plastic slate and like it better then his walnut slate,  their is a soundfile of his plastic aluminum in the soundfile section on the second page.  Great sounding aluminum call.

For me I like a DND flare tipped war hammer better than anything I've ran on it.

What's the difference in his anodized aluminum and his stoned aluminum pots?? :OGturkeyhead:

For the sound difference,  I would say the stoned aluminum has a sharper more pronounced yelp.  Both cluck and purr real nice.  The anodized I use a alcohol pad on the surface and the stoned I just use a green scotchbrite pad on.  I actually think the stoned is easier to run and produce all the sounds you need.  Scoot

    I'm in agreement with Scoot.....

         I really like the stoned surface........Lyman snakewood & a Fowler bocote..... :icon_thumright:
