Title: Short Hen Box
Post by: TheBigSnood on February 24, 2018, 09:45:05 AM
These are a Turpin style Short Hen Box.  they measure 8.5 inches long..  I am still trying to figure out how to post sound files so bear with me.  Huge shoutout to Mr. Hudson and Doug Morgan for investing in a young whippersnapper like me.. I owe you a million!

The first one is Bloodwood over English Walnut
Second is snakewood over English walnut

Thanks for the sound file.  With Matt's permission, I've uploaded his sound file for Snakewood over English Walnut.

At the round table last year in Unicoi we talked about helping younger callmakers getting started. Along comes Matt. His interest in build calls gave me the opportunity to give back so I'm try to help as much as possible. He is oof to a great start and i think he will go far. Great guy build a good call and well worth getting a call or two from.
