 Brass would be cool when it starts to tarnish....

Thought about doing the patina on it before I seal it up
Ammonia will accelerate the process

All metal trumpets are attractive to look at and run just like the duck calls I have seen at the Nationals but it would only be a bling bling piece for the collection as they are impractical to hunt with due to weight.

I kind of beg to differ...I have turned the brass call super thin to decrease the weight..in some parts of the call the wall thickness is less than .06 inches...

How's that Aluminum call sound?  I got one from Crawdad at Unicoi. 
Having worked in the Aluminum industry for 28 years now, I have a thing for Aluminum calls.

It really doesn't sound too bad and I'm having to make a longer mouthpiece for it
