Had Al at SS Custom Calls make and send this box to my brother for his birthday. It arrived yesterday. He was quite surprised and very happy with it.
Thanks Al.

:drool:
Nice birthday gift!
Awesome!
That's a good one for sure.
Ah my first SS box combo and a killer sound. It replaced my Mabry box in the vest this year. That's a fine gift.
Very nice

What condition is that Mabry in? If it's spotless and you'd like to get rid of it, I'm looking for one for my father.
PM sent wvmntnhick. Didn't wanna hijack this thread. I highly recommend this field grade combo from the SS boys though. I'm glad Al finally got some more kwila wood to make this combo!
Just an FYI guys his turnaround time is around 60 days.
my birthday is Nov 26th,,,
That was the first box I bought from Al and Josh.
It has a fine sound.

Beautiful box!! Hope I get to go to the convention next year so I can talk a little turkey and tell them what I am looking for.

I know what you're saying man. I've got a field grade and love it. It's my favorite box at the moment. Dad just really likes the looks of the checkered boxes and no more than he hunts or takes care of turkey calls, I'm not putting the money into one of their finer boxes for him or taking the chance that my youngest nephew might get hold of it and destroy it. Dad's been known to leave a call in the woods on more than one occasion. He'llgo back and get it but it might take a day or two.
Just picked up a maple over persimmon....great call :drool:
Not sure I mentioned it or not but the box I got from Al and Josh is purpleheart over mohagany I believe. In fact, all 4 of the custom boxes I've got at this point have purpleheart lids but the SS is definitely my favorite at the moment.
That is a great sounding combo.
