I just got this cedar over Alaskan Sitka Spruce Longbox from Dan Whittenberg today. I have only had a few minutes to mess with it but it sounds nice and is a beautiful call.

Yoder has never seen me run one. Sounds great one day and sounds like hell the next.

He did build me an awesome leather holster for a Longbox.

Dan includes a nice leather case with his longbox as well

Dan told me he buys his wood from a shop that specializes in musical instrument wood and that he used to build guitars.
