I don't own a long box but I have several regular size from different makers,,for me if it isn't checkered I just don't want it. I'm wondering why we don't see more fully checkered long boxes ?? I see them with checkered paddles but not ever or rarely with sides too. I would love to see one in the classic two row of checks on both the paddle and side of box with the nice inlays, basically a short box on steroids!!
Wondering why we don't see this more,,sound, time consuming, not has strong a long box???
Love to see some pictures if there's any out there.
Started making a cedar over butternut this morning ill post pics soon.
Thats a good question. Can't wait to see it!

Great looking calls fellas!!!
Halloran. While I'm a giant fan of SS I think David's boxes are great
I just spoke with Texarkana Texas' Dan Harris, and he has ten checkered long boxes that he will be bringing to Unicoi. I can certainly vouch for the sound and quality of his longboxes-I have two of them, and I wouldn't part with either of them. And, they are reasonably priced!
I have a Jeff White long box checkered in all walnut. Very nice looking and a great sounder!!!
What happens if you get that checkering too deep on the soundboards??

Hey, if that's what you like, that's what you like. Just have to point out that you will be passing up a lot of super killer sounding calls by that criteria. Just sayin'.
