I feel you can't beat a walnut box with a purpleheart lid although butternut box with walnut lid is not too far off.

Oh man, there's so many great combos... Bloodwood over BNut, Limba, or Poplar... Maple over BNut... Canarywood over BNut or Poplar... I could go on and on... Kwila over Limba or BNut... Walnut over BNut or Poplar

  I've got a walnut/holly made by Albert Paul.  It is one fine call. The call has a RICH clear yelp. It has that holly sound. You want go wrong with one.

No walnut over holly.  But I have a canarywood/holly and kwila/holly and really like em both.  Also had a snakewood/holly that I sold to Rickey that was a real good sounding call.
