He once told me his Bloodwood over Butternut was one combo he sold the most. That was awhile ago so I'm not sure if that still holds true. I have one in that combo which has been the demise of several birds. I recently heard a Bloodwood over Poplar of his that sounded sweet. If I had my choice of a first one I'd go Bloodwood lid. The one I have sounds like a nice mature hen and that "yawk" in the yelp

Macassar ebony/ mineral poplar or macassar/ butternut are great ones also.

I know it sure sounds great to me. Will see if I can use it on a bird in the morning. My 10 year old is ready to roll.

Good luck.

Anything with mora.

I've got a couple of his fiddleboxes.
I'd recommend a butternut box, with ebony or mora for the lid.

My favorite that I've heard (and I bought it) is a hop hornbeam over apple. That is one sweet sounding call, and easy to run...

I bought his Kwila/Mahogany Misfit this year at Unicoi and it is one of the best sounding box calls I own. Also picked up the Macasar/Persimmon short box that is awesome as well! I would ask him about the Misfit. It is a little bigger than his short box but smaller than the long box with a handle. It is incredible.

Hah! Yes, it was you, I think, who brokered that deal for me. And yes, thank you! It's a great call...
