Title: A box from Albert Paul you don't see often!
Post by: Yelper on July 20, 2018, 06:53:21 PM
A friend and I asked Albert to build us a Purple Heart over Ambrosia Maple and it turned out great. We sent him the ambrosia maple.
Albert said he had never built this combo, so I guess we are the first to have this combo from him.

That is nice. How does it sound? Raspy?

It is not raspy at all, has good yelps and rollover. It is what I would call in between a high pitch and a raspy box. Overall it is a really nice sounding box.

It does look like Lonnie's box. I really like Lonnie's box in that combo that I decided to go and have several more of that combo made by different call makers.

All look great Yelper and after I posted I went to look at mine and was wrong, mine is actually walnut/ambrosia maple. I knew the Ambrosia was familiar looking. How does Lonnie's pH/ambrosia sound Yelper miight have to pick one up lord willing i make it back to see Mr. Mabry?
