Looks awesome! How does it sound?

I'm thinking about one of his copper calls and possibly an aluminum. I was so impressed by his poplar glass, that I may need a couple others.

I really like this call. It has crazy good yelps. It has a distinct sound all its own. I will run a sound file when it is daytime and not pouring rain!

that is a great call,  I think it is zebrawood but not positive.  Scoot

Forgive my ignorance, what exactly is bronzed glass?  Just bronze pigmented glass?

Bronzed glass is glass that has been changed in the manufacturing process and it has a bronzed color but it also produces much crisper sound similar to crystal.  At least that's what I was told.  I'm sure someone can give a better answer.

That call looks slick and I'm sure it sounds awesome.

Beautiful call. If it sounds half as good it looks, it will be outstanding!

I have one of Brad's sycamore bronzed glass calls, it's sounds awesome.
I like it even better than his poplar glass call, which is also very good.
Brad's a good guy, his calls have great craftsmanship, and the sound is even better.

In my opinion,  this pot call has the best sounding yelp I have ever heard out of a pot,  the back end is incredible.  So realistic.  Scoot

I have mine and have been hunting it since I received it. I have called up 2 different hens and 5 jakes so for. the weather was crappy last week and I haven't got to actually work a bird with it. it is my favorite pot call so far. as scoot said , has the best yelp I have ever heard out of a pot call.

Well, after a bunch of head scratching (I'm not really a tech guy), I put together a sound file of Brad running this call. Hope he doesn't mind, but I thought it may help. I'll add it to the sound files thread.

i have this same call,only mine is in a highly figured bocote pot(the nicest looking bocote brad said he has ever turned ;D),this call is awesome.i picked it up in nashville and havent been able to put it down since.probably the sweetest looking and sounding pot i own,cant wait to try it out in a couple more weeks.

Brad told me the bocote was great and so was poplar,  the soundfile does it no justice in my opinion.  Scoot

yeah i heard all of them in nashville,they are all good.they all sound similiar but it seemed to me that the poplar was a little more raspy all the way through the yelp where as the bocote has a sweeter higher top then drops into that nasty rasp,if that makes any sense.but the back end all sounded about the same to me,which the different strikers probably played a big part in all of this too,mine came with a dymondwood.i dont think it would matter which a person picked they all sound great.

Field tested... Gobbler approved! Must be that Tennessee accent Brad stuffs in there.

I got a brand new, one of the best ones Brad ever made and I can't give it away.

I have the zebrawood glass/aluminum....did u have the aluminum painted just to dull the shiny aluminum?.....I wonder if it sounds any different with a thin coat of paint since he took it to run it
Title: Re: Brad Roberts Bronzed glass over aluminum

WOW SOUNDS VERY INTERESTING CAN U SAY WHAT IT IS .........

Still want a poplar glass/aluminum...just haven't ordered one yet

I had Brad make me a Black Walnut bronze glass over aluminum pot....his first in this combo....I got it a few weeks ago and this call is just amazing. I already have the Zebrawood and Poplar pots which sound great, but this Walnut call is sweeeeet. I also love Brad's strikers, they just work for me, I have Macassar Ebony, Grenadillo, and Snakewood.....all great in their own unique way. I am a pot call guy from way back, he makes a superb sounding call.
