Title: Walnut glass over maple
Post by: MarkJM on January 10, 2012, 11:22:29 PM
Had a guy from monroe louisiana call me and ask if I could wood burn a flor de lis for his saints team in a call for him. So I took what wood burning skills I had and came up with this call. I think it looks great.

Here is a sound byte to the call http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fU1mjk6mTfM&feature=youtu.be

thank you for the kind words. I'll tell you what, that much wood burning and heat on such a small piece of wood warped it so it looked like a slice of water melon if you held it side ways. I had to clamp it and reapply heat to straighten it

I havent really used wooden sound boards before but once I did, it ignited a spark. I really like the sound wooden soundboards produce. It wont be my last wood soundboard. It is a sweet sounding call
