Been wanting to try this for a while. I looked every where on the net to see if any one else had tried and couldn't"t find one.
The body is Tiger Maple with a 3 1/2 Anodized aluminum over glass and a 3 1/4 slate over laminated maple. When I use wood as a sound board I laminate hard wood in a cross grain pattern which produces a harder, more consistant sound board.
The striker is Tiger Maple and Padauk.
This thing fits great in your hand and is easy to switch from one surface to another.
Thanks for looking,

I will tell you what, I have never seen anything like that. That is definitely thinking outside the box.
How does it sound???
Thats awsome !!!
Man put a handle on it like a guitar or fiddle and that joker will make some sweet music for those Toms to come a dancing with...sweet...pappy
Great idea, :z-winnersmiley:
I have some dry wall to finish then I'll try to post some sound files tonight.
Interesting. Cool idea :smiley-char092:
that is cool. Bet I've looked at thousands on line and never seen one like it. Like pappy said "SWEET"
Wow! Cant wait to hear it! Pretty neat!
wow very interesting is that call a product of offset turning ? it is awsome :z-winnersmiley:
Patent that baby!
I think this is a very cool idea :you_rock:,,,sure, it may not be as practical as one would want, but a great idea nonetheless IMO--well done and spectacular selection on the figured maple.
Ain't that something! :icon_thumright:
Nice work and yes I would patent that! Pretty wood too!
Neat idea, how does it sound?
Very cool!! But I think it would look better in my collection!!
Sweet! I did a double take on that one!
I think that is a very good idea, I would definetely like to hear a sound file... Like to see one in slate and glass :icon_thumright:
awesome idea!
:icon_thumright:
I like the idea!!
That's sweet, I think I'd buy a call like that as long as it sounded half as cool as it looks
Interesting idea and some very nice maple! The way my weird brain works, it reminded me of siamese twins... I can picture a nice holster type pouch with striker loops on each side...
You are definitely thinking outside the box.
