I started a new thread for this, old post was for how long is too long waiting on calls that you already paid for. I got my calls today. They look and sound great. He personalized them but misspelled my daughters name. She doesn't care and it sounds great. One of the pots was made from Shedua instead of purpleheart, again it sounds great. The backs are slate and sound great as well. The mouth calls sound good as well. I do feel they were rushed, the glue is a little messy. Overall I am happy to have them, but the experience was bad. Small imperfections but overall I think they will hunt just fine. I plan on my 8 year old daughter calling me in a big gobbler with hers and I will return the favor in 2 years when she can hunt. Thanks to everyone . Good luck and God Bless. Al Baker
